PPR Vaccination and other preventive measures
Depending on the assessment and surveillance data, the vaccination
should be time-limited with high coverage aiming for 100 percent
vaccination coverage to achieve the necessary herd immunity in high-risk
areas.
Vaccination protocol: two year vaccination followed by vaccination of
young animals (4 months to one year in age) within one year or two.
Estimated number of animals to be vaccinated: 1.5 billion
Post Vaccination Evaluation (PVE).
