Resumen
Descripción
This document is intended neither to describe the current situation in at-risk countries nor to tell governments what to do. The former would be difficult in any event because with the upsurge in international travel, materials of all kinds – including those that may spread ASF – are easily dispersed throughout the world, and thus every country may be at risk. And the latter is neither feasible nor desirable, since the political, cultural, and economic landscape in each country will affect the c hoices that are available to and that may be decided upon by policymakers. We recommend therefore that the information contained in this document be considered a checklist for planners interested in improving their ability to respond rapidly and effectively to ASF. And although the report outlines some measures that are distinct to ASF, some other measures may be useful in the consideration of other diseases.
