  I suppose that having been brought up in the countryside and close to animals, it wasn’t remarkable(不平常的)when I decided to become a vet(獸醫(yī)).Luckily I was also good at all the necessary science subjects.So after the college entrance examination I found myself at a veterinary college, training to look after animals in all kinds of situations.I hoped that I would be able to work in the research field so that I could find cures for animal diseases.

  Much to my surprise, I found public health care was a very important aspect of my course.This is an area of animal medicine where a vet’s work has many things in common with the work of a doctor of human diseases.I particularly liked it because I recognized that the study of animal diseases can help human medicine.As we know, many infectious diseases come from animals-including SARS and bird flu.

  Some of the infections have only been understood after carefully analytical work in labs by animal doctors.They helped identify the animal source for diseases such as SARS.They were also the first to identify various kinds of viruses.Sometimes vets are also able to suggest a cure for human illnesses.When I found this out I was determined to make public health medicine my chosen career.

  After graduation, I applied for a job in public health.Soon I found myself concerned with the problem of bird flu.This is an illness that attacks birds, but humans can catch the disease if they are in close contact with infected birds.Though the job is dangerous, it makes me proud that vets and other animal disease researchers are in the front line helping to fight these unknown human diseases.
