Book (stand-alone)The European Commission for the Control of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Workplans – Phase V Second biennium 2021–2023
A Europe secure from the threat of foot-and-mouth disease and similar transboundary animal diseases
2021Also available in:
No results found.Foot-and-mouth Disease (FMD) remains the first transboundary animal disease (TAD) threat to European livestock production. A single introduction usually has extremely serious, and frequently catastrophic, impacts. The European Commission for the Control of Foot-and-Mouth Disease (EuFMD), under a framework of co-ordination with EC (DG-SANTE), FAO and OIE, as played a significant role in reducing the risk and ensuring better preparedness. Partly as a result of this, the EU has not had, for the first time in its history, an outbreak of FMD case for the past ten years. In this time the EuFMD has established an internationally respected capacity for efficient delivery of training and in-country support to FMD Progressive Control Programmes, and most recently, in modelling of FMD control measures to guide emergency planning. The HOLD-FAST strategy continues the focus upon FMD risk reduction but extends the scope of the preparedness and risk reduction activities to similar TADs which pose an immediate threat to the Member Nations (hereafter FAST is used for FMD and similar TADs). -
Book (series)Practical surveillance guidelines for the progressive control of foot-and-mouth disease and other transboundary animal diseases 2024
Also available in:
No results found.Progressive control pathways provide a stepwise, measurable approach to disease control and, potentially, eradication. Surveillance systems must be capable of providing useful information to document programme progress, assessing intervention efforts, and the achievement of interim outcomes. This document demonstrates a practical surveillance approach that progressesfrom measuring broad disease epidemiology and risk factors to specifically evaluating intervention options and documenting low disease prevalence. The process focusses on aligning practical surveillance components with disease programme outcomes while focusing on foot-and-mouth disease as an example.
