FMD in Draught Animals

In this graph an assumption is made that all animals affected by infection do not work within the first few days of infection.

According to the data, the morbidity was approximately 50%. Values approaching 100% are common in endemic regions where vaccine is not widely available or used.

Light work as recorded by Hugh-Jones is taken as 50% of normal work.
