Call for papers: Special Issue on COVID-19 and Long Term Changes: Failures, Challenges and Opportunities
Guest Editors: Francesco Andreucci, Daniela Florio
Submission deadline: 31 December 2023

After the onset of COVID-19, having gained an awareness of future coexistence with the virus and in the uncertainty related to the possible panzootic potential, there has been a heightened consciousness of the need for a one-health approach in intervention strategies to contain the disease. The experience gained suggests the indispensability of strengthening and implementing contingency plans with such a holistic and multidisciplinary view and with the involvement of different professionals in both the scientific and social sciences, or risk mitigation strategies will fail. An ethical approach in the development of guidelines for surveillance strategies, intervention measures and management in animal populations (wild, farmed and pets) thus becomes a prerequisite, as only shared choices can result in effective actions.

The purpose of this special issue is to provide the opportunity to publish original research or review articles and perspectives contributions in the field in which health professionals, researchers, the private sector and civil society balance certain values in case of moral dilemmas on the choices concerning animals in the view of the experience gained with the COVID-19 and of preparedness for a possible future panzootic.

Possible topics to be explored in this issue:

-Ethical Decision-Making for a One Health approach in animal health issues
-Impact on wildlife population and consequences on conservation program
-Welfare concern in pets, livestock, zoo animals, animals for research purposes and ethics of their management during a sanitary crisis
-The ethics of anthropization of wild environments and exploitation of wildlife for utilitarian purposes in relation to emerging zoonoses
-Animal welfare concern in food integrity and transformation of the food system during a crisis
-Impact of measures adopted to minimize the possible transmission between humans and wild animals held in zoos and aquaria

We invite contribution from a broad range of disciplines, including (but not limited to) veterinary medicine, epidemiology, biology, economics, law and philosophy, both from academics and from people who are directly involved and faced daily with ethically-based choices in their activity in the field, such as veterinarians, behaviorists, researchers and animal care technicians.
