The document discusses lessons learned from the PED outbreak and the need for improved preparedness for future emerging swine diseases. It outlines resolutions from the NPPC Forum calling for (1) a coordinated response plan for economically significant non-reportable swine diseases and (2) funding infrastructure for industry-driven swine health surveillance. Efforts are underway to develop disease prioritization, response plans, improve surveillance data collection, and strengthen borders to protect the U.S. pork industry. Coordination across industry, state, and federal groups will be important for controlling existing issues like PED and preparing for future disease threats.
An animal health information system is a system for collecting, analyzing, and reporting information related to animal health. It includes various components like data collection, storage, analysis, and reporting. The objectives are to provide information to improve animal health, assess disease priorities, support disease control programs, and meet international reporting obligations. Developing countries have animal health information systems tailored to their disease situations and resource constraints, with a focus on gathering basic data on prevalent epidemic diseases.

Troy Bigelow from the USDA presented a new approach to regulating pseudorabies virus (PRV) and swine brucellosis (SB) that combines the two programs. The current regulations are prescriptive and difficult to update, while the proposed performance-based approach in state health plans would streamline regulations. States would get a risk-based status and national surveillance would be enhanced. The new approach aims to reduce regulatory burden while continuing to prevent disease spread and assure low-risk animal movement. Public comments are requested to help develop the new regulations.
Key objective of the South-Eastern Europe (SEE) Management Meeting :

The document summarizes factors that influence decision-making for foot-and-mouth disease control in Kenya. Key informant interviews revealed inconsistent prioritization of animal disease control, separate lines of strategic guidance and accountability/budgeting, and private veterinarians involved in disease reporting and vaccination outside of official guidance and accountability. There are opportunities to provide more relevant disease data to farmers and veterinarians and ensure information flows in both directions. Strengthening FMD control could include reinforcing programmatic strengths through a participatory national strategy, integrated public-private partnerships, and accountability mechanisms that promote two-way communication.

OS20 - Solutions to vaccine security - a manufacturer's perspective - Pascal ...EuFMD
Vaccine banks provide a unique solution to address emergency vaccine needs by maintaining a stockpile of quality vaccines. While there is constant competition for regular and surge vaccine demands, banks ensure there is idle manufacturing capacity ready to serve increases in demand. Banks have been an acknowledged tool for disease-free countries, but can also help minimize vaccine shortages in endemic countries. They serve as a buffer stock to respond to sudden surges, insure against exotic strains, and trigger vaccination campaigns. Regional banks funded by international organizations provide a sustainable model and help transfer ownership to countries.

This document summarizes emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases. It lists the top causes of mortality from infectious diseases according to WHO, including respiratory infections, diarrheal diseases, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. An emerging disease is defined as one that is newly appearing or increasing in incidence or range. Examples of recent emerging diseases mentioned include hepatitis C, hepatitis B, and SARS. Factors that can contribute to disease emergence include properties of the agent, host, and environment. Several specific emerging diseases are then discussed in more detail, such as dengue fever, leptospirosis, AIDS, tuberculosis, avian influenza, Ebola hemorrhagic fever, Marburg virus, and Middle East respiratory syndrome
Infectious diseases pose a greater threat than bioterrorism according to the document. Infectious diseases like the flu kill thousands annually and pandemics could kill millions globally if not addressed. While bioterrorism is feared, the likelihood of an attack is low compared to the certainty of infectious disease deaths each year. To best protect humanity, resources should prioritize surveillance and treatment of infectious diseases, especially in developing nations that lack infrastructure and could incubate pandemics.

1. Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as cardiovascular diseases, cancers, diabetes and chronic respiratory diseases account for a large burden of disease in Nepal. NCDs represent over 80% of outpatient cases and over 88% of inpatient cases based on national data.
2. Risk factors for NCDs such as tobacco use, harmful alcohol consumption, unhealthy diet, and physical inactivity are highly prevalent in Nepal. Surveys show over one-third of the population uses tobacco and over one-quarter consumes alcohol harmfully.
3. While Nepal has drafted an NCD policy and strategy, urgent action is needed to implement prevention and control efforts for NCDs given their growing burden
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) include conditions such as cardiovascular disease, obesity, and allergies. NCDs are not transmitted between people but rather are caused by factors like age, genetics, unhealthy behaviors like smoking and poor diet, and air pollution. Key ways to prevent NCDs include maintaining a healthy diet, engaging in regular physical activity, avoiding tobacco and alcohol, and reducing pollution exposure. Treatment for NCDs should be available and affordable for all people according to the WHO. India still faces many issues related to the burden of NCDs as it continues developing.
Infectious diseases are caused by microbes that can be transmitted between individuals through various means. The document outlines the major types of infectious agents - viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoa - and examples of diseases they cause. Common modes of disease transmission include direct or indirect contact between infected and uninfected individuals, contact with contaminated objects or environments, and transmission via vectors like mosquitoes. The stages of an infectious disease are also described, from initial exposure and incubation, through the prodromal, acute, recovery, and convalescence periods, ultimately conferring potential immunity.
This document provides an overview of infectious disease epidemiology. It begins with a brief history of some major infectious disease outbreaks and their impacts. It then discusses concepts and definitions relevant to infectious disease epidemiology, including reservoirs, modes of transmission, epidemiological triad, and terminology. The document outlines the importance of studying infectious disease epidemiology and highlights current challenges like antimicrobial resistance and emerging/re-emerging pathogens. It also summarizes successes in disease eradication/elimination and the ongoing global burden of infectious diseases.
This document discusses non-communicable diseases (NCDs), which include cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes, and chronic respiratory diseases. NCDs are the leading cause of death worldwide, responsible for over 36 million deaths annually. The main risk factors for NCDs are unhealthy diet, tobacco use, physical inactivity, and obesity. While genetics and family history can increase risk, behavioral and environmental risk factors can be modified to help prevent around three-quarters of NCD-related deaths through a healthy diet, regular exercise, and medical checkups. NCDs cannot always be cured but can be controlled and prevented through effective interventions targeting risk factors.
The document discusses the classification of periodontal diseases. It provides an overview of how periodontal diseases were previously classified, noting that the classification system was heavily based on age. It then summarizes the updated 1999 classification system, which introduced categories for gingival diseases and refined the categories for periodontal diseases. The key changes were introducing gingival disease categories, replacing terms like "adult periodontitis" with "chronic periodontitis", and expanding definitions of systemic diseases and their implications for periodontal health.
The document defines communicable diseases as those spread between people through various modes of transmission like direct contact, vectors, contaminated food/water, or airborne means. It provides examples of common communicable diseases like chickenpox, diphtheria, filariasis, AIDS, polio, malaria, measles, tuberculosis, tetanus, rabies, and sexually transmitted diseases. For each disease, it discusses symptoms, causes, modes of transmission, and methods of prevention through vaccination, drug treatment, or hygienic measures. The overall document aims to educate about major communicable diseases, how they spread, and ways to prevent infection.

Bernie Sanders proposes a comprehensive pandemic response plan with the following key pillars:
1) Preparation and communication, including pandemic planning, guidance for different groups, and public education
2) Surveillance and detection, including monitoring disease spread domestically and internationally
3) Response and containment, such as limiting disease spread and mitigating health, social, and economic impacts
The plan calls for vaccine and antiviral stockpiling, distribution planning, advancing scientific research, and leveraging all levels of government and society to prepare for and respond to pandemics like COVID-19.
The document discusses pharmacovigilance and adverse drug reactions (ADRs). It provides historical context on important events that increased focus on pharmacovigilance like the Thalidomide disaster. It describes the need for pharmacovigilance due to limitations of preclinical and clinical trials. It outlines the aims, methods like spontaneous reporting and causality assessment, and programs in India and by the WHO. It defines ADRs and provides classifications. In summary, the document overviews the importance and process of pharmacovigilance in monitoring drug safety post marketing.

The document discusses various strategies for animal disease control including prevention, vaccination, biosecurity measures, surveillance, zoning/compartmentalization, and stamping out. It emphasizes applying the appropriate strategy based on factors like the disease, its impacts, stakeholders involved, and available resources. The overall goal is to reduce disease prevalence and impacts in a cost-effective manner.
The document discusses emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases from a global health security perspective. It provides definitions of emerging and re-emerging diseases and outlines key factors that contribute to disease emergence like animal reservoirs, human behavior, and lack of preventative measures. The summary also discusses frameworks for infectious disease control like the International Health Regulations that aim to prevent and respond to cross-border disease spread. Strengthening surveillance, reporting, response coordination and countries' core public health capacities is seen as crucial to improving global health security.
The guidelines are intended to help countries identify priorities, objectives and the desired goal of disease control programmes. Disease control programmes are often established with the aim of eventual eradication of agents at a country, zone or compartment level. While this approach is desirable, the needs of stakeholders may require a broader range of outcomes. For some diseases, eradication may not be economically or practically feasible and options for sustained mitigation of disease impacts may be needed. It is important to clearly describe the programme goals and these may range from simple mitigation of disease impacts to progressive control or eradication of the disease. These guidelines highlight the importance of economic assessment of disease intervention options in the design of programmes taking into consideration effectiveness, feasibility of implementation, as well as costs and benefits. The purpose is to provide a conceptual framework that can be adapted to a particular national and epidemiological context.
The document provides an update from the National Pork Board's Chief Operating Officer at the 2015 Pork Management Conference.

Dr. Pam Hullinger - Foot and Mouth Disease Continuity of Business Planning: C...John Blue
This document summarizes a presentation on developing a Secure Milk Supply (SMS) Plan in preparation for a potential foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) outbreak in the United States. The plan is a public-private partnership to develop continuity of business protocols for the dairy industry during an FMD response. Key components discussed include biosecurity standards, movement decision tools, and a proactive risk assessment of milk transport. While progress has been made, many challenges remain around integrating national guidance with state and regional plans, agreeing on specific farm and plant disinfection protocols, and developing movement permitting criteria and systems. Industry participation is welcomed to further the work of the SMS working groups.
This document summarizes Joachim Otte's presentation on economics in animal health and international policy environments. It discusses past international disease control programs and notes a lack of comprehensive evaluations. It also examines the political economy of large international organizations and how program managers may focus on size over efficiency to maintain budgets. Finally, it outlines FAO's animal health program and some methodological issues and areas for improved analysis around disease impacts, control options, and baselines.

Dr. John Grove - Fifty Years Of No-till Research In KentuckyJohn Blue
Long-term no-till research can provide valuable insights into crop production over many seasons. This research found that no-till soils generally had higher yields than tilled soils over time. No-till soils had cooler temperatures, held more water after rain, and had different soil biological properties and nutrient stratification compared to tilled soils. The impacts of no-till and fertilizer nitrogen on soil organic carbon and crop yields changed over the 50 years of the study.

Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
2. PED Response
• Industry, State and Federal governments
worked to address PED outbreak
• As a OIE non-reportable disease the U.S. did
not have a response plan in place for PED
• Pointed out a need to be better prepared for the
next emerging disease
4. NPPC Forum Resolution
Report Back to 2015 Delegate Body on:
1.) A proposed plan of coordination and program
execution for the US Swine Industry in the event of
the identification/introduction of any new
economically significant swine disease (defined as
not currently identified in the United States as of
March 1, 2014). This shall include all possible non-
reportable diseases which may afflict swine
(Defined as not an OIE –Listed Disease, Infection
or Infestation).
5. NPPC Forum Resolution
2.) A response plan to include:
• A prioritized threat listing of economically
significant non-reportable swine diseases
not currently identified in the United States
• Responsibilities of the government in
surveillance and response (Federal, state
and local)
• Responsibilities of the industry
organizations in surveillance and response
(National, state and local)
6. NPPC Forum Resolution
• Responsibilities of producers and other
segments of the pork chain in
surveillance and response
• Coordinated Strategies of governmental
and industry organizations to respond to
and contain the identified disease. And in
the event containment would not be
successful, strategies to manage the
existence of a given disease
7. NPPC Forum Resolution
• Strategies and Methods for the efficient
sharing of information deemed necessary in
the containment / control of a given disease
• Strategies to strengthen the defence of the
US Industry from potential introduction of
given diseases.
• An outline of projected resources and
associated costs to implement the proposed
plan shall be included in the report to the
2015 Delegate Body.
8. Pork Checkoff Advisement
The National Pork Board, in cooperation with the
National Pork Producers Council, shall draft plans
for funding and building the infrastructure needed
to collect and manage swine health surveillance
data through:
– an industry-driven and directed program housed with
the National Pork Board; or
– an industry funded third party entity housed
independently of the National Pork Board; or
– a state-federal-industry program cooperatively funded
and managed.
9. Status Update
• AASV taking lead on developing a
prioritized list of known swine viruses
worldwide
– Indexing them on economic significance,
diagnostic capability, control strategies
• We can’t prioritize what we don’t know
– Also need to be prepared for emerging
diseases that are unkown
– Categorization by transmission, zoonotic
potential, disease caused
10. Response Plan Status
• Response plan advisory group
– Producers, vets, state veterinarians,
USDA
• Met in May to go over first draft of plan
• Considers authorities and
responsibilities for response
• Draft is being modified for further
considerations
11. Phases of FMD Response
Transition
to Phase 2
less than 4
days (96
hours).
Types
12. FMD Detection in the United States:
Types of an FMD Outbreak
Type 6:
Catastrophic
North
American
Response Shifts from Emphasis on Stamping-Out
to Emphasis on Alternate Strategies (duration of FMD response)
Size of FMD
Outbreak
(in terms of
animals,
premises,
and
jurisdictions
affected)
Six Types of FMD Outbreaks
12
13. Surveillance Data
• National Pork Board leading the efforts
to address collection, housing and
utilization of surveillance data
– Need to balance producer confidentiality
with disease management to protect U.S.
industry
• NPPC supporting appropriations in
Congress to support “Comprehensive
Surveillance” at USDA
14.
15. Strengthening the Borders
• Continue to encourage USDA, FDA and
others to thoroughly investigate the
pathways of entry of PED into the U.S.
and close those pathways
• NPPC has a call for proposals to
analyze existing border safeguards,
index products coming into U.S. pork
production, and consider additional
safeguards
16. Summary
• Moving forward to control PED, protect
against future emerging diseases and
appropriately respond to outbreaks will
require a coordinated industry, state and
federal effort
– Some federal partners may be
those who are not familiar
with production agriculture
