From the many existing documents on the history of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia, it is possible to describe the practical measures adopted for disease surveillance and control from ancient times until the 19th century. Surveillance was based on diagnosis, post-mortem examination, animal inoculation and also on knowledge of the conditions under which infection occurred: aetiology, pathogenesis, mode of infection, susceptible species, virulent material, incubation period, etc. The historical facts are assembled and compared, with comments on each of these points. Control was based upon the application of health control measures or vaccination. A study of these two procedures makes it possible to compare their efficacy and to describe the principal steps in their implementation.
从众多现存的关于牛传染性胸膜肺炎历史的文献中，可以描述出从古代到19世纪期间为疾病监测和控制所采取的实际措施。监测基于诊断、尸检、动物接种以及对感染发生条件的了解：病因、发病机制、感染方式、易感物种、致病物质、潜伏期等。现将历史事实进行汇总和比较，并对每一点作出评论。控制则基于卫生控制措施的应用或疫苗接种。对这两种方法进行研究，可以比较它们的效果，并描述其实施的主要步骤。
