FMD is the most contagious viral disease of animals with important
economic losses. The small dose required to infect, the large amount of virus
excreted, and the variety of routes of infection and routes of excretion all contribute to
the extreme contagiousness of the disease. Susceptible host are Bovidae (cattle, zebus,
domestic buffaloes, yaks), sheep, goats, swine, all wild ruminants and suidae.
Camelidae (camels, dromedaries, llamas, vicunas) have low susceptibility
The incubation period of FMD is usually 2 to 14 days. In some circumstances
longer incubation periods have been recorded, particularly if the infecting dose is low.
The disease is of high morbidity and low mortality - mortality is only significant when
young animals are infected, in which case neonates may die due to a peracute
myocarditis.
Infection with FMD can occur via a variety of routes for example, direct or
indirect contact (droplets inhalation or ingestion, entry via damaged epithelia),
animate vectors (humans, etc.) inanimate vectors (vehicles, implements), airborne,
especially temperate zones (up to 60 km overland and 300 km by sea) and iatrogenic
FMD virus is excreted in all the secretions and excretions of infected animals.
