| Etiology Causative Agent |
The virus responsible for FMD is an aphthovirus, foot-and-mouth disease virus. Infection occurs when the virus particle is taken into a cell of the host. The cell is then forced to manufacture thousands of copies of the virus, and eventually bursts, releasing the new particles in the blood. The virus is genetically highly variable, which limits the effectiveness of vaccination. FMD virus includes 7 serotypes namely O, A, C, Asia 1, SAT-1, SAT-2, SAT-3. Out of all serotype, serotype O is very common in India. Presently serotype O, A and Asia1 are prevalent. |
