Courtney Legendre, a physician assistant with the 411th Civil Affairs Battalion in support of Combined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa, and Luwero District (Namaliga-Bombo town council) village health team member Muhamed Kasena perform a skit on the importance of using sanitary water in Kakute, Uganda, April 23, 2013. Sixty-one percent of emerging infectious diseases are caused by the transmission from animals to humans, often through poorly sanitized water. The demonstration, performed inside the Kakute Church of Uganda, was part of One Health, a two-week series of events that recognizes the health of humans, animals and ecosystems are interconnected. Overall, One Health is a whole-of-government program coordinated by the Ugandan government, UPDF, U.S. Agency for International Development, U.S. State Department, U.S. Embassy in Uganda and CJTF-HOA to help strengthen Uganda's capabilities.
