Purpose
To develop and evaluate a plausible scenario for an attack on the Midwest United States using Foot-and-Mouth disease virus.
The scenario is designed to facilitate discussions on broad agricultural preparedness and response issues

Foot-and-Mouth Disease Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is
an extremely contagious, viral disease of domestic cloven-hoofed and many wild animals, characterized by fever, vesicular lesions and, subsequent erosions of the epithelium of the mouth, tongue, nares, muzzle, feet, and teats.

APHIS Response
Goal: To detect, control and eradicate the disease agent as quickly as possible to return the United States to free status
The scope of the disaster will vary by the speed of the response Multiple foci Real time exponential growth

Risk Factors for Spread of FMD
Animal density Animal concentration points Livestock movements
Livestock markets Sale Barns Fairs and shows
People movements Wildlife Climate

Model Assumptions
Limited to one location 11 days from exposure to detection For 60 day period Limited livestock movement No climatic factors No wildlife spread No people spread

Introduction of FMD
Single foreign operative introduces FMD virus into a single cattle herd in the United States Midwest

Day 1
Total = 13 Farms Affected
![Page 17: Foot-and-Mouth Disease Attack on the Midwest U. S.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062814/56816825550346895dddb703/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Quarantined States
![Page 18: Foot-and-Mouth Disease Attack on the Midwest U. S.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062814/56816825550346895dddb703/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
National Activities
Movement controls (temporary) animals in transit continue to destination, no further movements allowed
Intensive surveillance National and international
communications
![Page 19: Foot-and-Mouth Disease Attack on the Midwest U. S.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062814/56816825550346895dddb703/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Zones of Control Infected zone
Quarantined area around the infected or presumed infected premises, (10km – 6mi as starting point)
May be alter based on weather, terrain, wildlife, livestock concentrations, etc
Surveillance zone Restricted area around the infected zone May initially include the entire affected state
and those in close proximity to infected zone Will be modified pending tracing and
surveillance results
![Page 20: Foot-and-Mouth Disease Attack on the Midwest U. S.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062814/56816825550346895dddb703/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Infected Zone Activities Intensive epidemiological
investigations of farmed animals and wildlife
Perimeter movement controls of roads Animals or animal products stopped Conveyances and people decontaminated
Depopulation and decontamination of infected farms
![Page 21: Foot-and-Mouth Disease Attack on the Midwest U. S.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062814/56816825550346895dddb703/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Surveillance Zone Activities Case finding
Livestock concentration points Sick calls
Awareness campaign Tracing contacts with infected animals
and premises We presume 8 contacts per farm per week Livestock, vehicles, people and materials
Vaccination of a buffer zone around infected farms if efficacious
![Page 22: Foot-and-Mouth Disease Attack on the Midwest U. S.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062814/56816825550346895dddb703/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Appraisal – Depopulation - Disposal
Appraise affected animals and dispose of them as close to the affected premises as possible – within 12-24 hours of culling
Estimated requirements are 5 workers per herd of 40 animals per day for depopulation and disposal
Average herd size = 200 animals
![Page 23: Foot-and-Mouth Disease Attack on the Midwest U. S.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062814/56816825550346895dddb703/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Decontamination of Premises
Thorough cleaning and disinfecting of facilities, products and equipment
3 people per farm per day for each 40 animals in herd

![Page 27: Foot-and-Mouth Disease Attack on the Midwest U. S.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062814/56816825550346895dddb703/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Analysis
Scenario suggested a single operative infecting a single farm but multiple farms would be more likely and could effectively spread FMD nationwide
Computer model showed that with the single introduction there would be 5844 affected farms within 60 days
![Page 28: Foot-and-Mouth Disease Attack on the Midwest U. S.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062814/56816825550346895dddb703/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
