Egypt’s Veterinary Syndicate Calls for More Hiring to Boost Livestock Production

Dr. Magdy Hassan, head of Egypt’s Veterinary Syndicate, has called for expanded hiring of veterinarians to address staffing shortages at veterinary units and slaughterhouses.

His appeal focused on filling gaps in the veterinary workforce and making greater use of veterinary units to increase livestock production.

The call brings together two priorities: recruiting more veterinarians and putting existing facilities to fuller use in support of animal production.

Hassan’s remarks did not specify the number of veterinarians needed or set out a timetable for recruitment.
