🐄🐐 Cross-border movement of animal pathogens can lead to dramatic social and economic consequences.
The EuFMD developed the Risk Monitoring Tool, which is a risk-ranking framework to assess the risk of a FAST disease's introduction in a country.

The EuFMD's new Move FAST strategy is centred on three Focus Objectives, seven priority Action Areas and eight principles. The four-year work programme builds upon capacity development, preparedness, networks, early warning systems and global surveillance. The overall aim is to reduce risk and consequence of FAST introduction into member nations and states.

🐄📢The EuFMD has achieved a significant milestone in veterinary medicine. We've embarked on a journey to establish a prequalification scheme for vaccines against FMD, enhancing vaccine security in the process. EuFMD's initiative involved evaluating FMD vaccines' compliance with the minimum standards outlined in the Manual of Diagnostic Tests and Vaccines for Terrestrial Animals by the WOAH. This is the first time that an independent system for prequalification has been developed for a veterinary vaccine. Learn more!
