Interactions between animal, human, and environmental health: “One Health” How will the prevalence and incidence of animal and plant pathogens in domesticated organisms and wildlife adjust to climate change? How can we better integrate cross-sector surveillance and response to ensure the risk of large-scale epidemics or pandemics in humans (such as COVID-19), animals, and plants are minimised? Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs, 2021
