U.S. Army Maj. Thamus J. Morgan, a veterinarian from the 411th Civil Affairs Battalion in support of Combined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa, greets children from Kakute Primary School in Kakute, Uganda, April 23, 2013. Morgan inspected the village's livestock-sanitation procedures with Uganda People's Defense Force animal healthcare experts as part of One Health, 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 strengthen Uganda's healthcare capabilities. Overall, 61 percent of emerging infectious diseases are caused by transmission from animals. One Health's goal is to educate people how the health of humans, animals and ecosystems are interconnected. (Photo by U.S. Navy Petty Officer 1st Class Tom Ouellette)
