Biosecurity and infection control are important aspects of veterinary medicine and livestock production. In fact, cattle, sheep, and goat industries all rank biosecurity and disease prevention among the highest priority areas in livestock management. Although attention and planning have improved over the years among producers, the daily activities of a veterinarian can prevent or promote the spread of contagious disease agents. Awareness and knowledge of principles for infection control are the greatest tools to ward off serious consequences related to the spread of contagious disease. Indeed, veterinarians and livestock producers should endeavor to take all necessary precautions to mitigate foreseeable risks.
生物安全和感染控制是兽医学和畜牧生产的重要方面。事实上，牛、羊和山羊产业都将生物安全和疾病预防列为畜牧管理中最优先考虑的领域。尽管多年来生产者的关注度和规划有所提高，但兽医的日常活动仍可能预防或促进传染病原体的传播。对感染控制原则的认识和了解是避免与传染病传播相关严重后果的最有力工具。的确，兽医和畜牧生产者应努力采取一切必要的预防措施，以降低可预见的风险。
