Supports livestock-focused FMD control; leaves open wildlife roles outside sub-Saharan Africa pending targeted studies.

Structured PICO

Population

Wildlife, feral, laboratory, or domesticated animals infected with foot and mouth disease (FMD) virus, with a specific focus on the African buffalo in sub-Saharan Africa.

Intervention

Control options for foot and mouth disease (FMD), including improved vaccines, livestock management practices, and regulatory frameworks (e.g., zonation, compartmentalization).

Wildlife generally do not maintain FMD, so control efforts should prioritize livestock vaccination and management rather than wildlife interventions.
