Lumpy Skin Disease Symposium for experts - Day 3 Morning Session
Rome time
The European Commission for the Control of Foot-and-Mouth Disease (EuFMD) and FAO’s Emergency Prevention System (EMPRES) are pleased to welcome the symposium on Lumpy Skin Disease – How science can support disease management and control.
The objective of the event is to provide scientists with a platform to present and discuss their most updated findings on a wide range of LSD and LSDV related topics. In case of an LSD outbreak occurrence, these data would enhance the preparedness of competent national authorities and provide them with science-based, state-of-the-art tools to design and implement effective disease management, control and eradication policies against LSD.
The meeting will cover the following topics:
· Current status and advances in epidemiological knowledge on LSD;
· Combatting LSD in different farming scenarios (transmission pathways and risk monitoring and challenges);
· Vaccines, vaccination strategies, diagnostics.
