emerging
reemerging
List the 4 main routes of FAD introduction.

- accidental (import, tourist)
- migration (wildlife)
- natural (re-emergence, mutation)
________ Diseases are characterized by formation of epithelial vesicles in the mouth, feet, or teats.
Vesicular
Which Vesicular Disease is present in Missouri?
Seneca Valley Virus (SVV)
List the 5 Vesicular Diseases.
- Foot & Mouth Disease
- Vesicular Stomatitis Virus

Foot & Mouth Disease is a what type of virus?
picornavirus
(T/F) Foot & Mouth Disease is zoonotic.
False
(T/F) Spread of Foot & Mouth Disease occurs before clinical signs develop.
True
There is no known _______ vector for Foot & Mouth Disease.
biological
Animals that have recovered or are vaccinated for FMD are __________, EXCEPT pigs.
carriers
(T/F) Foot & Mouth Disease infects cattle, swine, horses, sheep, and goats.
False - DOES NOT affect horses
_________ host of FMD means that few clinical signs develop but they spread the virus.
maintenance
_________ of FMD means they appear ill but shed virus in respiratory secretions.
amplifier
_________ of FMD means they have early, severe lesions.
indicator
Match which species serve as the following for FMD:
- Maintenance Host
- Amplifier
- Indicator
- sheep
- swine
- cattle
Once ingested or inhaled, FMD replicates in lymphoid tissue or ________ prior to vesicle formation.
pharynx
While vesicles form in cattle and pigs, _______ only develop mild lesions with FMD so it can be easy to miss.
sheep
Term for the fluid-filled eruption from the skin that develops with FMD.
vesicle
What lesion develops in young calves infected with FMD, indicating multifocal regions of myocardial coagulative necrosis but NO vesicle formation?
Tiger Heart Lesion
(T/F) Vaccination of FMD is appropriate control for FMD in the US.
False (cannot determine vaccinated from wild-type infection)
Virkon-S is a useful ________ for FMD control.
disinfectant
Which vesicular disease is zoonotic, present in the US, and considered a Rhabdovirus?
Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV)
Vesicular Stomatitis Virus is considered a seasonal disease and therefore transmitted by:
