1 MAXIMISING EFFICIENCY WITH A SURVEILLANCE STRATEGY FOR FOOT-AND-MOUTH DISEASE DURING AN OUTBREAK IN A PREVIOUSLY FMD-FREE COUNTRY. Kylee Walker Incursion Investigator and Veterinary Epidemiologist, Ministry for Primary Industries, New Zealand 1
2 New Zealand has never had an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease, but preparedness planning for responding to an incursion is a high priority for New Zealand s Ministry for Primary Industries because of the devastating effect the disease would have on our country. As part of FMD preparedness in New Zealand, a sampling and diagnostic surveillance strategy was developed to guide rapid and efficient detection of infected farms, through to proof-of-disease-freedom surveillance. MPI Investigation and Diagnostic Centre - Wallaceville 2
3 Reasons for a new surveillance strategy for FMD Our current plan for surveillance, once index case testing established the disease is present, would be based around regular surveillance visits to at-risk properties, to identify clinical signs at their onset. But this is not ideal: Waiting for the advent of clinical signs provides greater periods of virus shedding, and greater spread of infection We have large numbers of sheep as well as deer and goats which may not have overt clinical signs It is resource-heavy to send out vets to all at-risk or surveillance zone properties every 2 nd day for 14 days, whereas with testing most farms would have 1 or 2 visits to confirm or rule-out infection Other advantages: Knowing if antibodies or virus are present on farms could aid epidemiological investigation Will use serology in Proof-of-Freedom phase, so should use during outbreak phase too And now we have better tools available: Advancements in laboratory testing for agent identification (RT-s) means we can identify pre-clinical viraemic animals early detection NAIT animal movement tracking system in NZ allows more informed tracing better idea of risk of spread 3
4 Aim of surveillance strategy The strategy: establishes the appropriate diagnostic testing algorithm, specimen types and sample size numbers to use for different farm situations, allowing rapid deployment of an effective, pre-validated surveillance programme to diagnose infected properties, including pre-clinical ones, with the greatest efficiency, accuracy and speed. The diagnostic surveillance strategy is designed to improve efficiency in an outbreak by streamlining and pre-planning decision-making at the farm and the laboratory. It will reduce reliance on clinical surveillance and enhance pre-clinical diagnosis, hopefully assisting in a faster delimitation of an outbreak and ongoing management. Other advantages would be: assisting good decision making for confirmation or rule-out of infection and avoid unnecessary large-scale culls, to allow the collecting of appropriate samples to describe the epidemiology of the outbreak, which may be used both real-time and retrospectively, and providing guidelines for the farm-level sampling and testing for a proof-of-freedom claim.

5 Timeline of response to FMD virus infection in an individual animal, including detectable components for testing Exposure to infective dose Incubation period - Within farm 2-14 days - Between farm 4-14 days - Generally 2-6 days Vesicles rupture Circulating Virus-neutralising antibodies appear antibodies appear Clearance of virus Cattle by 2 weeks Pigs by 3-4 weeks post-infection E D wk 2wk 3wk 4wk Development of detectable viraemia Detection of clinical signs Detectable seroconversion: to SPs to NSPs Detectable component: Cattle Pigs Carriers --> Virus in OP fluid Virus in milk Virus in blood Virus in vesicular tissue Clinical signs --> Antibodies Key: Less likely to observe at this time 6

Take samples from all animals in herd of up to 40 animals. * 4 use s in parallel for necessary sensitivity or take 20 samples. 9
9 So how would this work practically? One submission form to rule them all... The purpose of the visit to the property (risk status) is prescribed already by the Planning and Intelligence Team on the laboratory submission form, which also serves as the sampling guidelines for the veterinarian. The veterinarian then assesses whether clinical signs are present or absent on the farm. The sampling guidelines from the tables are presented as a flowchart (separated into clinical signs present or absent) on the pre-specified laboratory submission form, enabling the field veterinarian to easily determine the appropriate samples to take for a particular farm. The same submission form identifies for the Animal Health Laboratory which of the preestablished testing algorithms the samples should follow (by identifying testing stream 1-4), and their priority. The results are reported back, along with the pre-specified farm details through a Diagnostic Interpretation role in the Planning and Intelligence Team, who assess the diagnostic results in context of the farm's epidemiology (including risk status). 10

Tests are not validated for these other species. 11

Cumulative Outbreak Graphs for Enhanced Risk Model in South Auckland 16
16 Further work to do Establish prioritisation system for which farms' samples to test based on what resources we have. This requires knowledge of the capacity of the laboratory (current and future), which has now been done. Establishing how samples will come into specimen reception and proceed into the appropriate testing algorithm. This is underway now with templates for the laboratory information management system being written, and logistics being worked out. A vaccination policy is under discussion now in New Zealand, if this is implemented, will need to adapt the protocols for DIVA testing. Also as additional tests become available, creating an active system for incorporating them and adapting the protocols. Problems Establishing a practical system for this process to work. The current software we use doesn't support it and a paper-based system would be difficult to maintain. In the event of an outbreak in New Zealand, it is likely that one of the two main islands would be affected predominantly. This means that establishing compartment freedom for one island to resume trade would be a priority along with controlling the epidemic in the other island. In this instance, the sample collection and testing resources required for compartment proof-of-freedom and epidemic control may be demanded simultaneously. 17
