PCP Stage 1
STAGE FOCUS To gain an understanding of the
epidemiology of FMD in the country and develop a
risk-based approach to reduce the impact of FMD
Countries in PCP Stage 1 are conducting
activities that give them insights into all
aspects of FMD in the country (transmission and
impact of FMD infection). With these insights,
they can define areas and practices of high risk
for FMD.
Stage 1 Outcomes
To enter Stage 1 a comprehensive plan to study epidemiology and socio-economics
1 All husbandry systems, the marketing network and associated socio-economic drivers are well described
2 Describe the FMD distribution and develop working hypothesis of how FMD circulates
3 Estimate socio-economic impact on different stakeholders
4 Identification of circulating FMD strains
5 Development of enabling environment and strengthening vet services
6 Transparency and commitment to FMD control in region
7 Identify important risk hotspots for FMD transmisssion
8 Adopt a strategic FMD control plan, based on risks and socio economic impact
Required to progress to stage 2
4
PCP Stage 2
STAGE FOCUS To implement risk based control
measures such that the impact of FMD is reduced
in one or more livestock sectors and/or in one or
more zones Countries in PCP Stage 2 are
implementing a risk-based FMD control strategy,
that has been designed to decrease the impact of
FMD in at least one livestock sector or zone.
The impact of the control strategy should be
regularly assessed through measurable indicators.

Stage 2 Outcome
1 Ongoing monitoring of circulating strains and risk in different husbandry systems
2 Risk based of control measures implemented in at least one sector or zone
3 FMD Impact is reduced by the control measures
4 Enabling environment and Strengthening veterinary services
5 Development of plan to eliminate FMD from country or zone

• Required to progress to PCP Stage 3
• Control programme may be endorsed by OIE in
  Stage 3

5
PCP Assessment 2014

• To progress from Stage 1 to Stage 2, a dossier
  must be provided that describes the control
  strategy in which the outcomes of Stage 1 are
  clearly described and addressed (understanding of
  FMD epidemiology and risk)
• For countries that already have been in Stage 2,
  in order to remain in Stage 2 they must provide a
  dossier that describes the control strategy in
  which the outcomes of Stage 1 are clearly
  described and addressed (understanding of FMD
  epidemiology and risk)

6
PCP Assessment 2014

• Advisory group meeting 2014
• Stage 1 countries to remain in Stage 1
• 2 countries
• Stage 1 completed ready to move to Stage 2,
  pending control strategy
• 2 countries
• Stage 2 countries must submit risk-based FMD
  control strategy and/or additional information to
  remain in Stage 2
• 3 countries
• For countries that did not submit questionnaire,
  remain in stage as last year. These are invited
  to submit information (questionnaire and control
  strategy)

Yemen provisional Stage 1
pending submission an activity plan to bettter
understand FMD
No clinical FMD
16
