This review outlines the history of bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) and the current situation in Australia and New Zealand. BVDV has been reported as present in cattle from both countries for close to 60 years. It rates as the second most economically significant disease afflicting cattle, and is highly prevalent and spread throughout the beef and dairy industries. While other cattle diseases have been the subject of government control and eradication, infection with BVDV is presently not. Eradication has been undertaken in many other countries and been judged to be a good investment, resulting in positive economic returns. Presently, Australia and New Zealand have adopted a non-compulsory approach to control schemes, initiated and managed by farmers and veterinarians without the ultimate goal of eradication. Moving towards eradication is possible with the infrastructure both countries possess, but will require additional resources, coordination, and funding from stakeholders to move to full eradication.
本综述概述了牛病毒性腹泻病毒(BVDV)的历史以及澳大利亚和新西兰的现状。据报道,这两个国家的牛群中存在BVDV已近60年。它被列为对牛影响第二大经济意义的疾病,在肉牛和奶牛行业中高度流行且广泛传播。虽然其他牛病一直是政府控制和根除的对象,但目前BVDV感染并非如此。许多其他国家已经开展了根除工作,并被认为是一项良好的投资,带来了积极的经济回报。目前,澳大利亚和新西兰对控制计划采取了非强制性的方法,由农民和兽医发起和管理,没有根除的最终目标。凭借两国拥有的基础设施,朝着根除方向迈进是可能的,但这需要利益相关者提供额外的资源、协调和资金,以实现全面根除。
