South Dakota One Health Hosts Vaccine Strategy Meeting
South Dakota One Health, a statewide consortium led by the University of South Dakota Sanford School of Medicine, was created in 2016 to encourage communications between medical providers, veterinarians and livestock producers regarding animal-borne illnesses that pose potential human health risks. Public education is also a critical aspect of the organization.
