Financial costs of disease burden, morbidity and mortality from priority livestock diseases in Nigeria: Disease burden and cost-benefit analysis of targeted interventions by Fadiga, M.L., Jost, Christine, Ihedioha, J.

“…For these diseases, and across agroecological zones, the study’s objectives were to: • assess the direct and indirect financial burden of inaction; • estimate the costs of targeted interventions; • determine the additional benefits, additional costs and net benefits associated with interventions; • evaluate of the benefit-cost ratios (BCRs) of targeted interventions; and • make recommendations on the feasibility of the targeted interventions. …”

Baseline analysis of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides antigens as targets for a DIVA assay for use with a subunit vaccine for contagious bovine pleuropneumonia by Lutta, H.O., Odongo, D., Mather, A., Pérez Casal, J., Potter, A., Gerdts, V., Berberov, E.M., Kyallo, Martina M., Kipronoh, A., Olum, M., Pelle, Roger, Naessens, Jan

“…Sensitivity and specificity of above 87.5% were achieved when the MSC_0499 and MSC_0636 antigens were tested on sera from vaccinated and infected animals.The MSC_0499 and MSC_0776 antigens were the most promising for detecting vaccinated animals, while MSC_0636 and LppB were the best targets to identify infected animals. Further testing of sera from vaccinated and infected animals collected at different time intervals in the field should help establish how useful a diagnostic test based on a cocktail of these proteins would be.…”

Anthrax hotspot mapping in Kenya support establishing a sustainable two-phase elimination program targeting less than 6% of the country landmass by Gachohi, J., Bett, Bernard K., Otieno, Fredrick, Mogoa, E., Njoki, P., Muturi, Mathew, Mwatondo, Athman, Osoro, E., Ngere, I., Dawa, J., Nasimiyu, C., Oyas, H., Njagi, O., Canfield, S., Blackburn, J., Njenga, K.

“…The rest of the 407 administrative wards covering 81.5% of the country landmass, were classified as low anthrax risk areas and consisted of the expansive low agricultural arid and semi-arid regions of the country that hosted 70% of the cattle population, reared under the nomadic pastoralism. Modelling targeted annual vaccination of 90% cattle population in hotspot administrative wards reduced > 23,000 human exposures. …”
