Key result
A review of the foot-and-mouth disease control program in India highlights that vaccine failures continue to occur due to thermolability, short-term immunity, and disrupted herd immunity.
Why the study?
Despite mass vaccination reducing foot-and-mouth disease incidence in India, cases still occur in regularly vaccinated areas, making it necessary to identify the reasons for vaccination failure.
This review highlights the challenges of FMD vaccination failures in India and recommends strategies for improving vaccine formulations and monitoring.

Underscores persistent FMD vaccine challenges in India; leaves open whether improved formulations can restore herd immunity.
Singh et al. (2019) conducted a review in Foot-and-mouth disease. Foot-and-mouth disease vaccination was evaluated. A review of the foot-and-mouth disease control program in India highlights that vaccine failures continue to occur due to thermolability, short-term immunity, and disrupted herd immunity.
