Epidemiology and control of scrapie within a sheep flock.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Jul 1998

Woolhouse M E, Stringer S M, Matthews L, Hunter N, Anderson R M

Abstract excerpt

Mathematical models of the transmission dynamics of scrapie are used to explore the expected course of an outbreak in a sheep flock, and the potential impacts of different control measures. All models incorporate sheep demography, a long and variable scrapie incubation period, horizontal and vertical routes of transmission and genetic variation in susceptibility. Outputs are compared for models which do and do...
