Contract period: 01.01.2008 - 31.12.2013
Purpose of research: Applied research

The goal of this WP was to develop a protocol showing the decision makers and the veterinary administration (Veterinärverwaltung) what risks can be associated with EID’s, as well as to show different scenarios to prepare for a crisis. The protocol builds on four vector-based ruminant diseases (BTV8, Besnoitiosis, Lumpy-skin disease and Rift Valley fever) for which flowcharts have been developed after comprehensive literature research, showing their different incursion and spread patterns, as well as options for monitoring and controlling the latter. The flowcharts can be used for Nordrhein-Westfalen and the Netherlands and Niedersachsen. In order to better assess the incursion and spread routes, a written survey of experts from science and administration in the Netherlands, Belgium, Niedersachsen and Nordrhein-Westfalen was conducted.
