摘要
Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a viral infection of clovenhoofed animals. It is considered one of the most infectious viral diseases known and is feared for its ability to spread rapidly and cause widespread outbreaks in domestic livestock under intensive farming conditions. Remarkably, it does not cause high mortality, but morbidity can reach 100%. The disease has been eradicated from large parts of the world, and countries that are free of FMD take extreme precautions to prevent its reintroduction. For this reason FMD has been called an economic disease due to resultant trade restrictions and subsequent losses in income that have been estimated to reach between $7.1-16 billion for Australia depending on the size and duration of the outbreak(1).
