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.

The Third meeting of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Epidemiology and Laboratory Networks for West Eurasia was organized virtually under the umbrella of the GF-TADs, by its FMD Working Group (WG), during 17-18 August 2021. The meeting bring together members of the West Eurasia Epidemiology and Laboratory networks with the objectives to share information on the current FMD situation in the region and identify challenges; strengthen the engagement of the regional networks in capacity building programmes needed to support the implementation of the FMD control strategies in the region; update membership of the epidemiology and laboratory network leaders and regional leading laboratories; develop biennial regional epidemiology and laboratory networks workplans for 2021-2023; set the methodology for linking the laboratory and epidemiology networks for continuous support to the national and regional objectives for FMD control; and introduce the PCP-FMD self-assessment tool (SAT) for monitoring progress and assessing national capacity on implementation of the FMD control strategy.
