Dear FMD epi-network members, Do you ever wonder: "What is the best way to how much FMD we have in the country?" "How many samples should I send to the lab for serotyping? for genotyping?" "How do I know if the FMD vaccination program is effective?" These were some of the questions that we tackled in a recent workshop in Cyprus with participants from countries affected by the recent incursion of FMD SAT-2 into North Africa/Middle East. You can see the presentations for yourself here: ftp://ext-ftp.fao.org/AG/Data/agah/EuFMD/Cyprus%20workshop/ How do you approach these issues in your country? Let us know!! Or send questions/comments to start a discussion with fellow-network members . Just send an email to [log in to unmask] to contact the network! Kind regards Melissa Melissa McLaws DVM, PhD EuFMD_email logo <http://www.fao.org/ag/againfo/commissions/en/eufmd/eufmd.html> http://www.fao.org/ag/againfo/commissions/en/eufmd/eufmd.html centre Sign up now for the ::EuFMD::Open Session2012:: 29-31 October2012 ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the FMD-EPI-NET-L list, click the following link: &*TICKET_URL(FMD-EPI-NET-L,SIGNOFF);
