Study Notes
Zoning and Compartmentalization
- Zoning divides a country's territory into subpopulations with distinct health statuses
- Compartmentalization focuses on separating subpopulations by biosecurity measures
Zoning
- A country may implement zoning to establish and maintain a disease-free status within specific geographical areas, especially if complete eradication is challenging
- Zoning helps control animal diseases and facilitate international trade
Compartmentalization
- It relies on functional separation based on biosecurity measures
- Examples include farms or regions with heightened biosecurity measures to prevent the spread of disease
- This is a tool for disease control and facilitating international trade
- Veterinary authorities collaborate with farmers and the private sector to manage compartments
World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE)
- The OIE promotes zoning and compartmentalization in the Terrestrial Animal Health Code
- These strategies aim to control diseases and support international trade
- Subpopulations within compartments must be clearly defined, recognizable, and traceable to maintain epidemiological separation from other subpopulations.
