EXPERIENCE
International Workshop on Management and Control of Important
Transboundary Animal Diseases in the Asian Pacific Region
July 25-29, 2016, Bay Leaf Hotel, Manila, Philippines
Reildrin Morales & Carolyn Benigno
2. Outline
• Background: FMD in the Philippines
• The FMD control and eradication programme
• Strategies
• Critical Control Pathway
• Progressive Zoning Approach
• Conclusions
• Lesson learned
3. 1st case of FMD was
documented in 1902 in
meat animals imported
from Hongkong
Type O 1952-2005
Type A 1975
Type C 1976
Type A - Last Reported 1983
Type C - Last Reported 1995
FMD in the Philippines
11. Laboratory tests employed:
Indirect Sandwich ELISA for antigen
detection from vesicular fluid
and/or epithelium
Liquid Phase Blocking ELISA fro
Antibody detection for surveillance
and monitoring in FMD-free areas
and monitoring of vaccination
Ceditest FMD-NS (Netherlands) or
PrioCHECK® FMDV NS for detection
of antibodies against non-structural
proteins FMDV which is used in
serosurveillance

14. Public Awareness
• Radio program for livestock farmers (school-
on-air)
– Early morning programs to educate farmers
– Engagement of farmers on importance of FMD
control
• Educating other stakeholders
– Traders
– Meat sellers
– Consumers

FMD Outbreaks
2004-2007
30. • Created in 2003 to
address the increasing
incidence of outbreaks in
slaughterhouses
• The CMT is a
composite team of
veterinarians that
functions as the clinical
surveillance arm of the
NFMDTF
The FMD Compliance Monitoring Team (CMT)
31. CMTs are tasked to monitor
critical livestock establishments
such as farms, slaughterhouses,
auction markets, weighing
stations, stockyards and lechon
(roast pig) establishments
32.
33. CMTs ensure stakeholder
compliance to guidelines
prescribed by BAI on
animal movement and the
‘All-In All-Out Policy’ in
slaughterhouses
34. The CMT detected 164 FMD
outbreaks from 2004-2005
in NCR and nearby provinces
35. The CMT condemned
and destroyed a total of
664 FMD infected
animals from 2004 - 2005
42. 1. arrest the disease situation
of a given area
2. protect the gains by
upgrading the area’s
status from infected to
protected with
corresponding required
measures (based on the
4 Components) like
movement control to
prevent re-infection
3. further upgrade status-as per
progress from protected to
free zones (w/ or w/o vaccination)
and correspondingly adapt stricter
measures on livestock activities
43. Conclusion
• Presence of political support that translated to
funding has been critical
• Implementation of appropriate, science-based
policies
• A strong advocacy front brought the
stakeholders on a common ground; to assume
ownership of the program and implement
given measures, as its intended beneficiaries
44. Continued…
• Presence of networks and existing collaborations
among stakeholders
• Presence of a functional coordination platform
that provides an avenue for implementers and
stakeholders, to discuss and agree on issues
• The presence of a unique structure, a dedicated
team- the FMD Task Force to work in carrying out
the activities in the national plan, allowed
simultaneous implementation of complementary
activities to deliver desired results – including
M&E
45. Lessons Learned
• Government policy is only as important as the
capacity to implement them
• Everybody has to have their share (ownership)
• Support to the program (and others like it) is
best translated to action and budget
46. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,
the evidence of things not seen. For by
it the elders obtained a good report.
- Hebrews 11:1
Susceptible livestock inventory of 23.8 million/ 80% are with the small hold farmers/13.7 million pigs or 78% are with the small hold farmers while 22% are with the commercial raisers, nationwide;/ 43% of the total FMD susceptible animals are in Luzon
