Resumen
PEREIRA DA SILVA, Savio T. et al. Human visceral leishmaniasis: ethical and legal reflections on the canine reservoir control in Brazil. Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2017, n.39, pp.135-151. Epub 02-Nov-2020. ISSN 1886-5887.
Brazil currently faces difficulties in combating human visceral leishmaniasis. According to the World Health Organization, euthanasia of symptomatic and seropositive dogs is one of injury control measures, according to current Decree 51838 of March 14, 1963, which becomes important to discuss the dialogue between health and law as a strategy to prevent the spread of the disease, due to the owners ' resistance to deliver their dogs with high emotional value, zoonoses. It is concluded that for effective public policy more elements are taken into consideration, especially interdisciplinary, emphasizing legal and health considerations involving issues that permeate the human relationships in the context of ethics and law.
