Abstract

A recent work from LTR-2, this presentation examines the human and animal health interface through a study that demonstrates whether Newcastle disease vaccinations may have poultry and human health benefits. It is further supposed that the increased availability of poultry will serve as an alternative to killing wild animals or bushmeat for food.
