TL;DR: The observation that Rh remained >1 suggests that the containment of the epidemic was probably due to the reduction in the number of susceptible flocks by complete depopulation of the infected areas rather than to the reduce of the transmission by the other control measures.

TL;DR: AMR bacteria in the environment, including sites relevant for human exposure, originate from contamination sources, and intervention strategies targeted at these sources could limit emission of AMR bacteria to the environment.

TL;DR: The experiments showed that vaccinating twice with vaccine 783 significantly reduces ADV transmission, and showed that it is possible to measure transmission experimentally, and should be obtained for all vaccines that are intended to eliminate agents causing animal diseases.

TL;DR: The analyses provide an estimate of the spatial range over which highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses spread between farms, and emphasize that control measures aimed at controlling such outbreaks need to take into account the local density of farms.

TL;DR: The course of infection differed between infection routes, suggesting that contact-infection could be a better model for natural transmission than iv inoculation.
