Narrative Medicine to counteract the spread of zoonosis on natural and anthropized areas due to the effects of climate change and globalization

This communication concerns the launch of a Narrative Medicine editorial project ("Micro Epidemic One Health" (Italian Ministry of Health Research - IZS UM 04/20 RC) intended to publish stories on zoonoses (infections transmitted from animals to humans and vice versa), through a Web annex named "Stories of Zoonoses" to the Open Access e-Journal Public Veterinary Health - SPVet.it (https://spvet.it). The "Stories of Zoonosis online platform" (https://storiedizoonosi.spvet.it) is easily accessible using a personal computer, tablet or smartphone, through a common Web interface via the Internet. Narratives published in this Cloud concern case studies, directly drawn from Health Service Practitioners field experience. Taken together, they constitute an "in progress" Open anthology on zoonoses diseases (all stories are under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license), directly connected to peer-reviewed scientific literature, endowed with peers' annotations/integrations and biomedical Open Data. Narrations have been drafted to encourage different levels of use. They may be used for self-learning purposes and training of specialists in Human and Veterinary Medicine and for developing a high Public Health culture in the Society in order to prevent the spread of zoonoses. Finally, but no less portant, this Project represents a form of intergenerational solidarity and coaching between Healthcare Professionals of different ages, allowing young Doctors to benefit from the experience of older colleagues.
