Pets can be risky: why physicians should discuss zoonotic infections with patients
Dr. Diane Kelsall, deputy editor, interviews Dr. Jason Stull, veterinarian and Assistant Professor at Ohio State University. Dr. Stull has co-authored a review article published in CMAJ. The authors say that health care providers should counsel patients regarding safe pet ownership, particularly those who are pregnant or who have altered immunity, and families with exotic pets and very young children. Stull and colleagues’ review of pet-associated infections provides practitioners with the tools to do this. Published April 20, 2015, doi: 10.1503/cmaj.141020.
