Article Synopsis
- Foot and mouth disease (FMD) is a highly contagious illness affecting cloven-hoofed animals and is prevalent in Iran, where outbreaks occur year-round.
- A study analyzed FMD vaccine effectiveness using data from outbreaks and vaccination records in cattle farms from January 2017 to March 2019, involving a case-control approach.
- The results showed medium vaccine protection, with effectiveness highest in farms using a specific commercial vaccine, indicating the need for improved vaccination coverage, especially in industrial and semi-industrial farms to reduce virus circulation.
