Foot-and-mouth disease is a viral, acute disease of domestic and wild ungulates, characterized by fever and aphthous lesions of the oral mucosa, udder skin, and extremities. Cattle and pigs are most commonly affected, while sheep, goats, and wild ungulates are less susceptible. Young animals are more susceptible and experience more severe symptoms than adults. Humans can also contract foot-and-mouth disease.
The causative agent of foot-and-mouth disease is a virus that is not resistant to high temperatures and quickly dies when heated to 60 degrees, exposed to UV rays, and ordinary disinfectants. Low temperatures, high humidity, and a neutral environment are particularly favorable conditions for the virus to survive in the external environment. Animals that have recovered from one type of virus may become ill if they are infected with a different type of virus.
The source of the disease is sick animals, including those in the incubation period.
