Relative Susceptibility of Cattle, Pigs and Sheep to Airborne FMD Infection


Modelled simulation of the area, to a radius of 10 kilometres, over which cattle, pigs and sheep would receive at least the minimal infectious dose originating from a point source of aerosol virus production over a finite time period. The area over which an infectious dose for cattle extends is significantly greater than for sheep or pigs.
