Overview

Sheep may transmit FMDV less than cattle in mixed herds; leaves open species-specific control strategies pending field validation.

Structured PICO

P
Population
10 groups of animals each consisting of 2 infected lambs and 1 contact calf
I
Intervention
Direct contact transmission experiment
O
Outcome
Transmission of FMDV (partial reproduction ratio R0p)surrogate

In a mixed population of sheep and cattle, sheep play a more limited role in the transmission of FMDV than cattle.
