BookletFoot-and-mouth disease quarterly report
January–March 2024
2024Also available in:
No results found.In this Q1 2024 report, data from the World Reference Lab for Foot-and-Mouth Disease and global intelligence reveal concerning trends. The report highlights unexpected FMDV movements, including SAT 2 outbreaks in Algeria and O/EA-3 incursions in Libya. The emergence of SAT 2/V in Algeria raises questions, given its last detection in 1991. Additionally, samples from Kenya show diverse FMD serotypes. In East Africa, testing is underway for further samples from Ethiopia and Uganda. Elsewhere, South Africa reports SAT 1 and SAT 3 outbreaks, while in Asia, FMDV sequences from Indonesia underline the spread of the O/ME-SA/Ind-2001e lineage. FMD outbreaks in the Republic of Korea were recently reported. -

No results found.This quarterly report describes recent data for foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) outbreaks. During this period, the World Reference Laboratory for Foot-and-Mouth Disease (WRLFMD) has reported test results for samples received from Bahrain, Nepal, Nigeria, Qatar, Republic of Korea and Thailand. There have also been new sequence submissions from Ethiopia (BVI, Botswana), Malawi (BVI, Botswana) and Palestine (Kimron Veterinary Institute [Israel]). -
BookletFoot-and-mouth disease: quarterly report
January–March 2023
2023Also available in:
No results found.The World Reference Laboratory for Foot-and-Mouth Disease (WRLFMD) has reported test results for samples received from Egypt, Ethiopia, Iraq and Jordan. During the past three months, epidemiological events in the European neighbourhood have been overshadowed by the emergence of SAT2/XIV in Iraq, Jordan and Türkiye. Clinical disease in large ruminants appears to be severe, with higher-than-expected mortality levels in older animals being reported. Analyses of sequences collected from these cases confirm that they are caused by viruses from the SAT2/XIV topotype which are closely related to viruses collected from Ethiopia during 2022. These are the first reports of the SAT-2 serotype in these countries, and since infection is occurring in naïve animals without any history of infection or vaccination for this serotype, there are obvious concerns about the potential for rapid onward spread to other countries in the region and to the FMD-free buffer zone in Thrace via east-to-west virus conveyers that have been described for other FMDV lineages.
