“…Data were then corrected for known population densities and relative rates of contact were estimated in STATA version 9.2 (de la Garza, 2007; StataCorp LP, College Station, Texas, USA). Based on GPS location accuracy, FMDv survival characteristics (Bartley et al 2002;Cottral 1969) and regional climate averages, direct contacts were defined as occurring ,20 m and within 15 min, and indirect contacts were defined as occurring ,20 m and within 360 min. Cattle densities were calculated from known herd and pasture sizes, and swine densities were estimated at 0.038 feral swine/ha (Gabor et al, 1999).…”

ABSTRACT:The last outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) in the United States occurred in 1929. Since that time, numbers and distribution of feral swine (Sus scrofa) have increased greatly, especially in the southern states. This creates a potential risk to livestock production because swine are susceptible to, and can be carriers of, several economically harmful diseases of livestock. Most importantly, swine are potent amplifiers of FMD virus. In this study, global positioning system (GPS) collars were placed on rangeland cattle (Bos indicus 3 taurus) and feral swine to determine shared habitat use by these species on a large ranch in south Texas from 2004 to 2006. The aim was to identify locations and rates of interspecies contact that may result in effective transfer of FMD virus, should an outbreak occur. In shrubland and riparian areas, animals were dispersed, so contacts within and between species were relatively infrequent. Indirect contacts, whereby cattle and feral swine used the same location (within 20 m) within a 360-min period, occurred primarily at water sources, and seasonally in irrigated forage fields and along ranch roads. Direct contacts between species (animals ,20 m apart and within 15 min) were rare and occurred primarily at water sources. Changes in ranch management practices are suggested to reduce interspecies contact should an FMD disease outbreak occur. This information can also be used to improve current epidemiologic models to better fit free-ranging animal populations.

Paris. A.; Maino, M.; Duchens, M. Facultad de Ciencias Veterinarias y PecuariasUniversidad de Chile ResumenBioseguridad se refiere al conjunto de acciones implementadas, orientadas a prevenir el ingreso y salida de agentes causantes de enfermedades en un área que se intenta proteger, así como también limitar su diseminación al interior de esta unidad. El objetivo de este estudio fue definir especificaciones técnicas de bioseguridad predial para rebaños de bovinos de carne y determinar el nivel de cumplimiento de estas prácticas en explotaciones de bovinos de carne de la zona central. Para ello se elaboró un Protocolo de Bioseguridad Predial, compuesto de 80 especificaciones técnicas. Este Protocolo fue evaluado mediante la aplicación de una encuesta en 10 planteles bovinos de producción de carne de ciclo completo con una masa superior a 1000 animales, ubicados en las regiones Quinta, Metropolitana y Sexta. La información obtenida se analizó en forma descriptiva y los resultados fueron expresados en porcentajes de cumplimiento. Los resultados obtenidos de este estudio indicaron que el 50,2% de las especificaciones técnicas de bioseguridad descritas son aplicadas. El mayor nivel de cumplimiento se observó en la prevención de la diseminación de agentes causantes de enfermedades (64,8%), observándose la aplicación de programas de vacunación y control de parásitos en la totalidad de los planteles. En la prevención de la salida de agentes causantes de enfermedades, se registró un nivel de cumplimiento del 40%, detectándose como prácticas habituales el envío de animales enfermos hacia otros planteles. Se observó una reducida implementación de prácticas destinadas a prevenir el ingreso de agentes causantes de enfermedades (45,7%), en especial en el ingreso de personas al plantel. Se concluye que las explotaciones de bovinos de carne evaluadas tienen riesgo de introducir y diseminar agentes causantes de enfermedades que pueden afectar la salud animal y alterar la seguridad y calidad de un producto alimenticio.Palabras clave: Bioseguridad, bovinos.

“…Infection can occur through close animal contact, aerosol transmission, fomites such as skin, dust, vehicle surfaces, or equipment, or through sexual contact (Bartley et al, 2002). Controversy surrounds the exact case replication factor of FMDV, but estimates exceeding ten are not uncommon, especially in the early portions of an outbreak (Blancou 2002).…”
