Reducing contact between infectious and susceptible hosts

Quarantine

Quarantine is the physical isolation of infected or potentially infected animals to prevent further spread of infection. Quarantine can be applied to farms that are known or suspected to be infected to prevent spread of infection to other farms. It can also be applied within farms to prevent spread between infected and uninfected groups of animals, or to isolate introduced animals until the farmer can be confident that they are disease free. Occasionally groups of farms may also be quarantined, particularly if they are potentially exposed to a highly infectious disease.
