Who am I

By Pet Labs
Just another human being on earth, I would say. Dr Romela Salgado by name and I love being called Romela

I was born and bred in the beautiful island of Sri Lanka and am enjoying the hidden beauty of the unspoilt life here in Lanka. By profession I'm a small scale entrepreneur running my own veterinary practice @vet4petanimalclinic  . I'm self employed there as a registered veterinary surgeon

During my free time I scroll through the Internet looking for opportunities to improve myself personally and professionally, enjoy music,  bake, play with my dog and what not. I have less than a handful of friends but they're family to me. I have my precious old dog who will turn 14 in a few months. Telling you about my family, there's my mother, father and a younger sister who has my back at all times. The picture below is a very recent photo of myself; a rare moment of a selfie
Beliefs: more into spirituality than into any religion. I believe that for anything to work out everything else must flow in peace  

Peace is my religion. Letting go is my armour

I'm curious as to what your beliefs are in living. Share with me in the comments

What took me to the UN

By Pet Labs
I was invited to the United Nations' International Labour Organization for a consultative meeting with the stakeholders of the entrepreneurial system to conduct a start-up ecosystem mapping for the first time in Sri Lanka on the 17th of January 2025 This is my first time to even go to the United Nations and I'm grateful that I was invited. In my invitation it mentioned that I was invited for the potential that I showcased as a young entrepreneur  There were only four young entrepreneurs who were invited while the rest was about 50 other massive stakeholders and entrepreneurs themselves But, what exactly made me to the UN? I was pondering about the "potential" and yes, I think I figured out  1. social impact : aligns with 10 SDGs of UN From healing pets to creating industries, employment and promoting innovation, my work expands in the most sustainable ways 2. health impact : promotes longevity and sustainability of pets directly and human beings indirectl...

Leptospirosis as a zoonosis

By Pet Labs
Leptospirosis awareness A timely topic as there's a Leptospirosis outbreak in the Northern province of Sri Lanka. I see a gap in the level of awareness on prevention and transmission regarding this topic although there are plenty of sources to explain the symptoms of the disease. It's vital to raise awareness on prevention of spread of the disease among the non-infected at a same level as of the attempts to cure the already infected individuas! Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease - a disease that is transmitted to humans via animals Leptospirosis, also known as "මී උණ" in Sinhala is a highly contagious disease caused by the bacteria Leptospira The carrier of the disease is rodents such as rats, mice and even squirrels The carriers can transmit Leptospira bacteria to most of the mammals such as humans, dogs, cats, cattle, horses, wild animals and marine mammals How does the bacteria enter into an individual? There are several ways by which the bacter...
