'One Health' and Health Professions Education: The uphill path

Abstract

The whole cosmos is interconnected maintaining an intricate balance of creative – destruction. Similarly, here on the 'Pale Blue Dot', as Sagan called our planet Earth, every living and non-living thing is woven together. They all function according to the laws of nature including, cells and organs within our bodies.^1,2 The laws of nature demand respect. Disrespect has a price, at times very high.

The human trait to think, leads to curiosity. Its ability to seek, find, create and innovate is unstoppable. At times the brilliance of mind transgresses the laws of nature, inviting its wrath.
