Abstract

Marcelino Ramirez Garcia [Bergasa (La Rioja) 1864 - Logroño 1940] was a military vet and Spanish doctor leading scientific level, which devoted most of his work to tuberculosis, both in terms of animal pathology and human, and the relationship between both. It was an integral worker in the fight against this scourge of humanity to which historically was called «The White Plague». His unusual balance in the exercise of both professions, makes him fully an eminent precursor of the concept: «One world, one health».
