Kuwait planning to hold conference on veterinary medicine on 1998
Kuwait, Medicine, 8/11/1997
Kuwait will host the first conference on veterinary medicine next March. Assistant Under-secretary for Livestock and Fishery Affairs, Dr. Sultan Al Khalaf, told a local Arabic daily that the upcoming event would be the first of its kind in the Gulf attended by representatives from the Arab and Gulf countries, in addition to numerous international organizations.
The conference will highlight the veterinary role in the preservation of human health through protecting animals from various diseases, he said. Al Khalaf said that the international conference would focus on eliminating maladies that human beings and animals in GCC states and the Middle East in general might contract. This would be done through genetic engineering and the production of vaccines.
Meanwhile the regional committee, presently headquartered in Lebanon, will hold its fourth meeting in Jordan at which it will discuss the epidemic diseases of the Middle East region, he said.
