Pakistan,Pencap,Sahiwal Bölgesindeki Sap hastalığının Epidemiyolojik ve Ekonomik Yönleri

Bu araştırma Pakistan’ın Pencab eyaleti Sahiwal bölgesi, Tehsil Chichawatni’daki enfeksiyon/salgın hikayesi olan 12 köy ile enfeksiyon/salgın hikayesi olmayan rastgele seçilen 12 köyde yapıldı. 2571 inekten oluşan bir populasyonda morbidite, mortalite ve vaka ölümleri oranı sırasıyla %53.20, %15.25 ve %28.65 olarak bulundu. 834 genç inekte, morbidite, mortalite ve vaka ölüm oranları sırasıyla %56.47, %22.90 ve %40.55 iken 1737 yetişkin içeren populasyonda bu oranlar sırasıyla %51.64, %11.57 ve %22.40 olarak tespit edilmiştir. 5926 bufalo bulunduran populasyonda morbidite, mortalite ve vaka ölüm oranları sırasıyla %61.69, %20.80 ve %33.72; 283 bufalo buzağısında %65.82, %30.77 ve %46.75 ve 3843 yetişkin bufaloda ise bu oranların sırasıyla %59.46, %15.40 ve %25.9 olduğu gözlenmiştir. Her iki türdeki genç hayvanlar hastalığa yetişkinlerden daha duyarlı bulunmuştur. Tehsil Chichawatni civarında farklı cinsiyet ve yaslardaki evcil süt hayvanlarının fiyatları konusunda canlı hayvan pazarlarına, mezbahanelere, tüccarlara, özel veteriner hekimlere ve çiftçilere danışılmıştır. Sap hastalığından dolayı oluşan ekonomik kayıplar 6 aylık çalışma periyodunda enfekte/salgın olan köylerde 322918 dolar (Rs. 27448000) olarak gözlenmiştir. Sunulan bu bilgiler koy seviyesinde şap hastalığının prevalansı hakkında bir göstergedir

Epidemiology and Economic Aspects of Foot and Mouth Disease in District Sahiwal, Punjab, Pakistan

The present investigation was conducted in randomly selected 12 villages situated in Tehsil Chichawatni, District Sahiwal, Province Punjab of Pakistan with history of infection/ outbreaks and other 12 control villages which were free from the outbreak/ disease. In total population of 2571 cattle, morbidity, mortality and case fatality rates were 53.20%, 15.25% and 28.65%, respectively. In young cattle, out of 834, morbidity, mortality and case fatality rates were 56.47%, 22.90% and 40.55% while in adult population of 1737, these were 51.64%, 11.57% and 22.40%, respectively. Out of total population of 5926 buffaloes, morbidity, mortality and case fatality rates were 61.69%, 20.80% and 33.72%, respectively. In young buffalo calves 283 morbidity, mortality and case fatality rates were 65.82%, 30.77% and 46.75%, respectively. In adult population of 3843 buffaloes, morbidity, mortality and case fatality rates were 59.46%, 15.40% and 25.9%, respectively. Young animals of both species were most susceptible than adults. The different auction markets of livestock fairs, slaughter houses, middleman, private veterinary practitioner and farmers were consulted in and around Tehsil Chichawatni about the prices of livestock breeds at various ages and of different sexes. The economic losses due to FMD were observed Rs. 27448000/- ($ 322918) during the study period (Six months) in the infected/ outbreak villages. Data presented here provides some indication about the prevalence of FMD infection at village level.
