Low carrier prevalence after reactive FMD vaccination supports targeted testing; leaves open real-world validation before surveillance changes.
Mathematical modeling suggests that after reactive vaccination for foot-and-mouth disease, the prevalence of carrier herds is very low, supporting individual-based testing regimes for post-epidemic surveillance.
Paton et al. (2007) studied this question.
