127
Q

3 methods of reservoir neutralization

A
  1. remove and slaughter infected
  2. mass therapy – treat all potentially infected
  3. manipulate the environment – vector control and disinfect vehicles
128
Q

mass therapy

A

local use – treat all potentially infected without testing

MUST eliminate infection in carriers and not just cure clinically
