Description

Dogs and cats are now part of our families and share with us not only feelings but also spaces and environment. Some of their parasites are transmissible to humans. Few parasites, very commonly found in pets, may cause serious, poorly known diseases in human beings. On the contrary some are unnecessarily dreaded by Physicians. The role of all of us is to show the truth, to discredit old myths and legends, and to warn against the real risks spreading the concept of “One Health".
