Spatio-temporal Dynamics of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus in South America

1 code implementation5 May 2015 Luiz Max Carvalho, Nuno Rodrigues Faria, Andres M. Perez, Marc A. Suchard, Philippe Lemey, Waldemir de Castro Silveira, Andrew Rambaut, Guy Baele

Although foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) incidence has decreased in South America over the last years, the pathogen still circulates in the region and the risk of re-emergence in previously FMDV-free areas is a veterinary public health concern.
