Veterinarians do provide an essential service too

SINCE the first movement control order triggered by the pandemic, veterinarians in various fields in Malaysia have been working to uphold the well-being of animals and public health despite the risk of contracting Covid-19.

Behind the scenes, we ensure that sick animals receive prompt treatment, people have enough supply of safe and contamination- free table meats and eggs, and pet owners who spend more time working from home are protected from potential zoonotic diseases.
