The Guyana Veterinary Association is joining its sister associations and colleagues around the world in celebrating World Veterinary Day today under the theme “Veterinarians as Essential Health Workers”.
In a statement, the Veterinary Association applauded this choice of theme which promotes the concept of veterinarians being an integral and essential component of the global team of Health Workers.
“This global One Health approach could not be better exemplified than by the Government of Guyana aptly recognizing local veterinarians as essential health workers during the recent Covid-19 Pandemic. A commendable and avant-garde decision”, it said.
