A Malawi 鈥楽pay Day鈥�
How does neutering dogs at a local 鈥楽pay Day鈥� protect both dogs and people from rabies?
Claudia Hammond is in Malawi exploring the concept of One Health, where the health of humans, animals and the environment are all linked.
Today we鈥檙e visiting a makeshift roadside operating theatre for dogs in the village of Kauma, just outside of Lilongwe. During the 鈥楽pay Day鈥�, vets from the Lilongwe Society for the Protection and Care of Animals neuter local dogs for free, in an attempt to protect both dogs, and people, from rabies.
We find out how this work feeds into the bigger picture of One Health in Malawi, and Claudia has a go at being a veterinary assistant鈥�
