Que dit l’EFSA sur la dermatose nodulaire contagieuse ?

Par exemple Benoit Biteau déclare "La Fédération des vétérinaires européens dit qu’il y a des alternatives à l’abattage total."

L'étude de l'EFSA

Une étude plus récente synthétise son apport :

"When vaccination is evenly applied so that 95% of the farms are vaccinated with 75% of the vaccinated animals effectively protected, then total stamping out and partial stamping out result in a similar probability of eradicating the disease. It is important to understand that this conclusion is based on either virus introduction in a region with 95% already vaccinated farms, or in a region where 95% of the farms are vaccinated between 15 and 65 days after introduction of the virus (EFSA AHAW Panel, 2016)."

Dans le même sens, elle précise

S'agissant de la FVE, je n'ai pas trouvé à quoi il fait référence. Je n'ai trouvé que deux choses :

Another aspect is early vaccination: areas at risk of disease incursion will benefit most from the protective effects of mass immunisations by preventive vaccination, i.e. carried out before the introduction of the disease. This is due to the fact that not all LSD-infected animals show clinical signs and the virus may therefore spread “silently” hence a vaccination only after detecting the clinical cases would be too late to promptly stop the spread.
