Translations:Advanced Field Epi:Manual 1 - Disease Control and Eradication Programs/115/en

Without a clear and well-argued rationale for eradication or control, any program is likely to lack the support of producers, industry leaders and governments. The most common reasons for eradication or control have been discussed previously, but include public health effects or the cost of the disease to the industry or community. If eradication is proposed, there also must be a valid reason for recommending eradication rather than control.
