
What is biosecurity?

Best management practices that prevent
infectious diseases from being introduced
into a herd or flock.
Epidemiology of Disease

Epidemiology

Study of the way disease is distributed in
populations and factors that influence or
determine the distribution


Exposure
Immunity

Means of Transmission

Direct


Susceptible animals come into direct or close
contact with an infected, contagious animal
Indirect

Animals come into contact with infected or
contaminated animate vectors, inanimate
vehicles and environmental fomites

 Fires
 Hurricanes
 Tornadoes
 Winter storms
 Droughts

 Traffic
 Terrorism & Bioterrorism
 Power outages
 Explosions



Appendix off of local EM plan
Determines what should be done before,
during and after disaster
Works with both livestock and pets/companion
animals






List everything that must be done, and every
person involved.
Use the AIC plan only as a guide.
Don’t leave out details.
Hold regular exercises.
Communicate.
Keep situation reports and activity logs of past
scenarios.
