MT2 - FMD Flashcards
51) FMD is a chronic disease
F
52) FMD spreads slowly within the herd
F
53) FMD virus is shed by semen
T
54) Foot and mouth disease is serologically uniform
F
55) Because of the high variability of FMD virus cross protection cannot be observed even within the serotype
T
56) Within the FMD serotypes, subtypes can be differentiated
T
57) The sample from the FMD suspected animal should be submitted to lab cooled but not frozen
T
58) FMD ulcers are usually sharp edged and regular round shaped
F
59) The foot and mouth disease is classified into 7 serotypes
T
60) FMD can be transmitted by frozen meat
T
61) The peracut form of FMD causes severe haemorrhages and death by shock
F
62) The chronic form of FMD means arthritis
F
63) FMD is transmitted by insect vectors
F
64) Vesicles of FMD can fully recover after immune response
T
65) FMD causes the loss of hoof in swine
T
66) The SAT-1,2 and 3 serotypes of FMD virus are present in Africa and Arabia
T
67) In humid cold environment, the FMD virus can retain its infectivity for weeks
T
68) Even the vaccinated animals can carry and shed the FMD virus
T
69) The main host (reservoir) of foot and mouth disease virus is swine
F
70) FMD induces lameness in sheep and oral vesicles in goats
T
71) FMD virus is shed in milk
T
72) For laboratory tests foot and mouth disease samples should be submitted in buffered transport medium
T
73) Within the FMD serotypes, subtypes can be differentiated
T
74) The foot and mouth disease virus can retain its infectivity for 40 days in manure
T
75) In Europe supportive therapy is applied in the treatment of FMD
F
76) Frothy and sticky nasal discharge is the characteristic sign of FMD
F
78) The hedgehog is susceptible to FMD
T
80) All serotypes of foot and mouth disease can be detected worldwide
F
83) Foot and mouth disease can cause myocarditis in young animals
T
84) Ruminants can carry foot and mouth disease virus for up to 3 years
T
85) The Asia serotype of FMD virus is present in Turkey and in the Middle East
T
86) The FMD virus is enveloped
T
???
Picorna (aptho) is non-env
87) FMD virus cannot be propagated in cell culture
F
88) 24 hours after the inoculation of FMD virus into guinea pig paw pad vesicle formation can be observed
T
89) The FMD mortality is nearly 100%
F
90) The FMD suspected sample should be sent to lab by post (in mail)
F
91) FMD virus can be transmitted by feed
T
92) The primary replication sites of foot and mouth disease are the lymph nodes
F
93) The primary replication sites of foot and mouth disease is the bone marrow
F
94) Horses are susceptible to foot and mouth disease
F
95) Cattle shed foot and mouth disease virus for a shorter time comparing to swine
F
98) We can observe the most severe foot and mouth disease signs on sheep
F
99) In the control of foot and mouth disease vaccines are used in Europe
F
100) 9 hours after infection foot and mouth disease virus can be shed by the infected animals
T
101) Swine shed foot and mouth disease virus for a shorter time than cattle
T
102) The foot and mouth disease virus is very sensitive to acidic pH
