Synopsis (short abstract) This flyer is a training resource that contributes to the Prioritization of Antigen Management with International Surveillance (PRAGMATIST). PRAGMATIST has been developed to assist foot-and-mouth (FMD) Risk Managers to select which strains are most important to maintain in their vaccine bank. This flyer supplements the tool, which provides a transparent, evidence-based framework to evaluate available vaccine antigens, that can be adapted according to the region at risk.

    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.
