Weekly Community Conversations - Infectious Diseases Update

About This Session: 
We will be joined by Dr. J. Scott Weese, Professor at Ontario Veterinary College and Director of the Centre for Public Health and Zoonoses for an update on infectious disease issues.  A variety of emerging, re-emerging and unusual disease events continue to threaten companion animals and shelters. This presentation will provide an overview of recent issues, including parvovirus concerns in Michigan and the potential impact of monkeypox on pets.​

About These Calls:
Maddie’s Fund, in concert with American Pets Alive!, hosts a weekly hour-long Zoom call for animal well-being professionals. These calls are a collaborative space to share exciting new programs and research, discuss uncomfortable topics, connect with peers in the industry, and more, all while sharing a common goal of preserving the human-animal bond.

This call, recurring each Monday unless otherwise posted, is for executive directors, animal well-being leaders, shelter workers, pet support professionals, volunteers, and rescue organizations.

You need only register once to attend each recurring meeting. By registering for this event, your email address will be automatically added to the American Pets Alive! newsletter mailing list. This newsletter will be where weekly meeting agendas and announcements are shared. We do not share your information.

All calls are recorded and uploaded to the Community Conversations page on Maddie’s Pet Forum https://forum.maddiesfund.org/communityconversations
