3 Study Design Acute Clinical Samples Clinical case reports, geographic location, demographics, etc Clinical samples, viruses, sequence Longitudinal Field Study Population: buffalo premises all located near Islamabad Serological survey of 40 farms for NSP positive animals, probang, history Selection of 29 farms (300 buffalo) for sampling (serum and probang) 4X year for 1 year NSP-ELISA, RT-PCR and virus isolation Establish panel of reference sera for in country vaccine evaluation Vaccination of 10 cattle and 10 buffalo with commercial vaccine to be used in field Serum collection at 0, 21 dpv, boost vaccination Serum collection at 42 dpv Carry out vaccine matching studies

4 Significant amino acid and nucleotide variation, wide spatial distribution of genetic lineages, no with differences in host species, all consistent with frequent multispecies infection of this serotype O FMDV in a highly mobile population

12 VIETNAM MOLECULAR EPIDEMIOLOGY, SURVEILLANCE AND PREDICTIVE TOOLS FOR FMD CONTROL IN VIETNAM F, S 6/1/2010-9/30/2012 Collaborators: Dr. Jonathan Arzt Dr. Helena Ferreira Dr. Thanh Long Ngo, DAH, HCMC Dr. Ho Huu Dung, DAH, Hanoi Dr. Carla Huston, Mississippi State University

13 Objectives 1- Molecular epidemiology of FMDV in local livestock including cattle, buffaloes and pigs 2- To better understand the transmission mechanism of persistently infected to susceptible livestock in natural setting 3- Enhance strategies for identification of persistently infected animals using new technology

14 Design Objective 1 Acute Clinical Samples Samples collected during outbreak Pigs, buffalo and cattle Northern and Southern Vietnam Objective 2 Longitudinal Field Study HCMC region tranmsission cells (9 farms) Hanoi-SonLa region carrier cattle and buffalo (field necropsy) Objective 3 Persistent buffalo studies Field necropsies Molecular characterization (tissue level, cytokine mrna, protein expression)

15 Objective 1. Phylogenetics of novel strains of FMDV Multiple lineages in multiple species no species specific lineages Novel strains (bold) found in this study

16 Objective 2. Ecology of FMDV carriers Two Provinces identified with history of FMD outbreaks in cattle, buffalo SonLa (north) Jan 2011 LongAn (south) Feb Established study sites: Targeted surveillance study Buffalo necropsy study / cattle transmission study

17 Targeted surveillance study Risk of being FMDV infected and/or FMDV carrier: Buffalo - highest risk of being FMDV-infected, intermediate carrier risk Dairy cattle lower risk of being FMDV-infected (OR=0.2), lowest carrier risk (OR=0.2) Beef cattle - lowest risk of being FMDV-infected (OR=0.4), highest carrier risk (OR=4.9) Carrier infected : 3ABC+ and Probang +; Ever inf.: 3ABC+; Never inf. : 3ABC neg

18 Objective 3. Transmission Study From Carrier Cattle to Sentinel Cattle Study site in southern Vietnam no clinical activity >1yr Individual small premises - pastures, surrounding premises vaccinated bi-annually 9 farms 2 donor carrier buffalo or cattle (NSP +, Probang +) housed in direct contact with 2 naïve cattle (NSP -, Probang -) Direct contact - one year study serum and probang every 2-3 months Probang samples from naïve cattle all tested NEGATIVE for FMDV by rrt-pcr, VI Serum from naïve animals all tested for negative NSP -

19 Preliminary Results All donors shed virus intermittently throughout the exposure time None of the naïve cattle developed antibodies (NSP) Naïve cattle remained probang negative until the end of the study Multiple viral sequences were obtained from persistent animals
