Dec., 19, 2015, Mumbai, India: Market Reports on China presents the report, on “China Foot-and-mouth Disease (FMD) Vaccine Industry 2010-2019 [Market Research Report]”. Adult animals may suffer weight loss from which they do not recover for several months, as well as swelling in the testicles of mature males, and in cows, milk production can decline significantly.

Picornavirus, the prototypic member of the genus Aphthovirus, is the virus responsibal for FMD. And it has seven serotypes with different antigenicity. The disease is characterized by high fever that declines rapidly after two or three days, blisters inside the mouth that lead to excessive secretion of stringy or foamy saliva and to drooling, and blisters on the feet that may rupture and cause lameness.

Though most animals eventually recover from FMD, the disease can lead to myocarditis and death, especially in newborn animals. Some infected ruminants remain asymptomatic carriers, but they nonetheless carry FMDV and may be able to transmit it to others.

The transmission of FMD is generally regional. The FMD virus can be transmitted in a number of ways including close-contact animal-to-animal spread, or inanimate objects, typically stall and vehicles. The clothes and skin of animal handlers such as farmers, standing water and uncooked food straps and feed supplements containing infected animal products can harbor the virus, as well. Cows can also catch FMD from the semen of infected bulls. Control measures include quarantine and destruction of infected livestock, and export bans for meat and other animal products to countries not infected with the disease.
