Origins, Impact and Epidemiology of Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia

About this book

Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP), or lung plague, is one of the great historic diseases of livestock, and still causes major economic losses in Sub-Saharan Africa. It spread to all continents where cattle were farmed in the 19th and 20th centuries, but until relatively recently little was known of its origins and impact around the world. Covering its worldwide spread, impact in terms of economic losses, and control and diagnostic methods used, this book focuses on the five continents that CBPP infected. By examining primary sources, it provides an accurate and definitive account of the behaviour of the disease, and the response of control authorities and livestock owners to it. Filling in the gaps for this World Organisation for Animal Health listed disease, this book is a useful reference for anyone studying or researching the spread of animal disease and disease control.
