Have you heard of Q fever? Catch up on this free informative session about the disease and how it impacts herds and flocks in the UK. We will share our findings and bring forward case information, where herds have been impacted by the disease and are now beginning to take control of the disease through a number of steps, including vaccination and biosecurity measures. Q Fever is a disease caused by infection with the bacterium Coxiella burnetii, which can infect cattle, goats, sheep and many other mammals. Studies on the UK cattle herd indicate that Q fever is highly prevalent. Q fever is zoonotic, with those people in direct contact with ruminants at most risk – This will be a great opportunity for those working with livestock or going onto farms, to get the answers to the many questions that this disease raises. Watch our free webinar which explores the disease behind the “silent troublemaker” that is Coxiella burnetii.

Have you ever wondered why some people seem to be more prone to addiction than others? While addiction can affect anyone, certain individuals may have a higher susceptibility due to their personality traits and characteristics. This concept is often referred to as an addictive personality. While the term "addictive personality" may sound simple, it is important to understand that it is not a diagnosis or a definitive label. Instead, it is a set of traits and behaviours that may increase the risk of addiction. The concept of addiction and addictive behaviour has a rich and complex history deeply intertwined with human civilisation. From ancient times to our modern understanding, the evolution of addiction has been shaped by cultural, medical, and scientific developments.
