摘要
A preventive approach is the most effective and humane strategy for management of infectious disease in shelter populations. Strategies for prevention include reduction of environmental contamination and support of the host immune response. This article provides recommendations regarding selected environmental and host determinants of disease, including management of population density, sanitation and disinfection, disease recognition, segregation and isolation, air quality, stress reduction and environmental enrichment, vaccination, and nutrition.
