XXXIV ORDINARY MEETING 

FINAL REPORT 

1. OPENING OF THE MEETING 

The inaugural Chair consisted of the following members: Mr. João Carlos Fagundes Machado, 

Agriculture, Livestock, and Agribusiness Secretary, State of Rio Grande do Sul, representing the 

Government of the State of Rio Grande do Sul; Dr. Albino Belotto, Ex Officio Secretary, 35th COSALFA; 

Dr. Carlos Sperotto, President, Agricultural Federation, State of Rio Grande do Sul; State Deputy 

Jerônimo Goergen, representing the Rio Grande do Sul Legislative Assembly; Dr. Jamil Gomes de 

Souza, Director, Animal Health Department, Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply-MAPA; Mr. 

Francisco Signor, MAPA Superintendent in the State of Rio Grande do Sul; Dr. Mercedes Campos, 

President, 34th COSALFA and Delegate of the Agriculture and Animal Health Autonomous Service- 

SASA/Venezuela; Dr. Tito Díaz, Animal Production and Health Senior Officer of FAO's Regional Office 

for Latin America and the Caribbean; Dr. Luís Barcos, OIE Regional Representative for the Americas; 

Dr. Ricardo Molins, Chief of Animal Health and Food Safety, IICA/Costa Rica; and Dr. Air Fagundes dos 

Santos, President, Veterinary Medicine Council, State of Rio Grande do Sul, representing Brazil's 

Federal Veterinary Medicine Council. A video was shown on which the Minister of Agriculture, Livestock, 

and Supply of Brazil welcomed participants and stressed the importance of the work done by the 

countries toward the eradication and prevention of foot-and-mouth disease-FMD in South America, 

and particularly the efforts done by Brazil for its recognition as a country free of the disease. 

Dr. Carlos Sperotto, President of the Agricultural Federation of the State of Rio Grande do Sul, 

welcomed participants on behalf of Brazil's and the State of Rio Grande do Sul's private sector, and 

underlined the importance of the event. He thanked the authorities for their interest in hosting COSALFA 

and in maintaining national and international eradication policies. Dr. Sperotto also informed participants 

about the signing of the Mercosur Rural Associations Federation/World Animal Health Organization 

(FARM/OIE) Agreement on FARM's recognition as the sector's accredited representative before OIE. 

Deputy Jerônimo Goergen greeted participants and referred to the Legislative Assembly's support for 

national and international policies toward eradicating the disease. Dr. Jamil Gomes de Souza, Brazil's 

Director of Animal Health, mentioned the efforts and the accomplishments to date but expressed his 

concern over the apparent silence, which might be interpreted as if the battle had already been won. 

Dr. Albino Belotto, COSALFA's Ex Officio Secretary, welcomed participants and mentioned the 

joint work successfully done by the private and the public sectors, as well as by the international 

technical and economic cooperation agencies. COSALFA is now 35-years old and is aware of the 

P A N

importance of a systemic approach to the Veterinary Public Health Unit in a health and agriculture 

context. The foot-and-mouth disease has a strong impact on food security and trade relations among 

countries. Thus, combating it means gains for both the productive sector and the countries' progress. 

The maintenance of technical cooperation extended by PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO has had Brazil's 

support in the form of resources contributed and of a technical cooperation agreement to strengthen 

the country's capacities for responding to sanitary problems. Mr. João Carlos F. Machado welcomed 

the COSALFA members and the national and international observers to the State of Rio Grande do 

Sul, and saluted the State Department professionals in particular. Mr. Machado referred to the vaccination 

coverage of over 95 percent at the final stage ended last January and to a 97-percent result of an 

immunity evaluation survey. He also mentioned the initiatives to strengthen the structure developed by 

the Department. Mr. Francisco Signor thanked his team and FARSUL for their efforts in making 

preparations for this meeting and urged the countries to strengthen themselves, establish alliances, 

and organize themselves regionally to face markets and competitors. 

It was then proposed that a representative be elected President of the 35th COSALFA and another 

as its Rapporteur. Dr. Jamil de Souza was elected President, and Dr. Rodrigo Mena, Undersecretary 

for Agricultural and Production Promotion, of Ecuador's MAGAP, was elected Rapporteur. 

2. SECRETARIAT'S REPORT 

The Secretariat's Report covered the period from March 2007 through March 2008. It started with a brief 

review of the situation of foot-and-mouth disease in South America, a subject to be dealt with in greater 

detail in the course of the meeting. There followed an assessment about the compliance of the resolutions 

adopted by the 34th COSALFA, on the basis of compliance of these resolutions by both the countries and 

the Ex Officio Secretariat in relation to the objectives of the 2005-2009 Hemispheric Foot-and-Mouth Disease 

Eradication Plan-PHEFA. Lastly, during the session devoted to Other Activities Developed by PANAFTOSA/ 

PAHO-WHO, the report reviewed the results of interagency and inter-institution cooperation agreements, 

projects, and efforts jointly developed with the Inter-American Group on Foot-and-Mouth Disease Eradication- 

GIEFA; the Permanent Veterinary Committee-CVP; the World Animal Health Organization-OIE; the Inter- 

American Development Bank-IBD; the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization-FAO; the Inter- 

American Institute for Cooperation in Agriculture-IICA; the U.S. Department of Agriculture-USDA; the Canadian 

Food Inspection Agency-CFIA; the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply-MAPA and its 

research arm, EMBRAPA. Also reviewed were important aspects of cooperation pertaining to information 

and epidemiologic surveillance, international standards, and Biosafety. 

I - Foot-and-mouth disease situation on the Continent 

North America, Central America, and the Caribbean maintained their status as regions free of footand-mouth 

disease-FDM without vaccination. In South America, Chile, and Guyana have also maintained 

their status as countries free of FMD, without vaccination. Argentina's Patagonia, with the incorporation 

of part North B; Peru's southern, central, and eastern regions; and Colombia's Urabá Chocoano are also 

still considered FDM-free, without vaccination. In 2007, the Brazilian state of Santa Catarina joined the 

FDM-free countries or areas, without vaccination. Uruguay remains also free, without vaccination, as 

does Argentina's territory north of parallel 42º. Brazil has eleven states with suspended status, but has 

6 P A N A M E R I C A N F O O T - A N D - M O U T H D I S E A S E C E N T E R - P A H O / W H O


gained recognition for southern Pará. Colombia, Bolivia, and Paraguay have extensive FDM-free areas, 

with vaccination. Through the Permanent Veterinary Committee's intermediation, a High Surveillance 

Zone-ZAV has been established along the binational or tripartite border areas of Brazil, Argentina, Bolivia, 

and Paraguay. This zone is subject to more intense surveillance and is the focus of integration and 

harmonization among the countries. A detailed report was then presented on the situation of national 

FDM eradication programs and on the disease's occurrence in Ecuador and Venezuela. 

II - Level of implementation of the 34th COSALFA Resolutions 

RESOLUTION I 

SITUATION OF FOOT-AND-MOUTH DISEASE IN THE REGION AND ACTIVITIES OF PHEFA 

THE XXXIV ORDINARY MEETING OF COSALFA, 

Considering: 

The progress made by some countries in the recognition of new areas as free with and without 

vaccination, a status which has to be maintained with prevention programs; 

Despite all efforts, sporadic occurrence continues in zones recognized as free with vaccination, 

and the origin of the virus has not been determined; 

The endemic situation in Venezuela and Ecuador, which is a risk to neighboring countries and 

others with which they hold trade relations; 

The importance of PHEFA as the main conductor of national and regional strategies for FMD 

eradication in the continent; 

The dynamism of economic proceedings and their epidemiologic impact on FMD occurrence; 

The need to revise progress of PHEFA in its continental performance; 

The institution and operation of PAMA in the strategic framework of PHEFA; 

The need that within the scope of PHEFA and its subregional version, PAMA, harmonious and joint 

programs should be developed to achieve eradication of the disease in the subregion, 

RESOLVES: 

1. That the countries reaffirm their commitment to the strategic guidelines of PHEFA. 

2. That PANAFTOSA-PAHO/WHO, together with the countries, to look for resources to convince 

an ad hoc Group to prepare an evaluation methodology to be presented for consideration by the countries. 

3. To propose a meeting for an evaluation of activities of PHEFA. 

4. That PANAFTOSA-PAHO/WHO should continue offering support to the countries of CVP in the 

development of PAMA, especially in the development of the emergency plan for the region, which was 

approved by the ministers of CAS at the extraordinary meeting of March 8, 2007. 

5. That PANAFTOSA-PAHO/WHO should intensify technical cooperation to Ecuador and Venezuela.

LEVEL OF IMPLEMENTATION: 

1. Both the FDM-free Mercosur Plan-PAMA and the Andean Eradication Plan were based on PHEFA's 

programs. The two plan's components follow the strategic injunction to the countries to make greater 

efforts than ever before and to ensure the strengthening of programs, coordinated initiatives along 

border areas, vaccine production, and the diagnosis of Biosafety conditions. For these plans' 

implementation, PAMA received US$16.8 million from FOCEM, and the Andean Plan was assigned 

priority among the activities of CAN's Secretariat. Nevertheless, of the bloc's countries, only Colombia 

and Peru have achieved the envisaged results. 

2. PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO has available an evaluation instrument that takes regional 

characteristics into account. The ad hoc group has not been called upon, but the guidelines on the 

auditing of vaccine control labs and on Biosafety have been updated by CVP working groups for 

application within Mercosur. Audits were not performed in the period, except for CVP missions, funded 

by the IBD, to the High Surveillance Zone-ZAV. 

3. PHEFA's performance will be evaluated by the Hemispheric Committee on FMD Eradication- 

COHEFA, which will meet in Rio de Janeiro in June 2008 on the occasion of RIMSA 15. But the document 

titled "Report on the Situation of Programs" to be presented and discussed at this meeting assesses 

how far the objectives have been achieved two years away from the established deadline. 

4. In addition to acting as CVP's Animal Health Commission's Secretariat, PANAFTOSA/PAHO- 

WHO supported PAMA initiatives, particularly the implementation of the ZAV plan, of the proposals for 

a longitudinal surveillance system based on risk criteria, and of the guidelines on evaluating Biosafety 

and vaccine quality control. 

5. In November 2007, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO participated in a meeting with FAO, USDA, and 

IICA and in a series of workshops and seminars in Ecuador on livestock health control, at the invitation 

of that country's Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, Aquaculture, and Fisheries and of SESA and FAO, 

with a view to encourage the productive sector to cooperate with the national program and to discuss 

a draft agreement between cooperation agencies and Ecuador. 

It also took part in the CAN discussions of a project proposed by FAO to strengthen a regional 

mechanism to support FMD eradication in the Andean Community countries, and a technical manual 

for updating and strengthening national and regional FMD prevention, control, and eradication programs, 

proposed by OIE's Regional Office. In respect of direct technical cooperation, PANAFTOSA/PAHO- 

WHO provided guidance for the strategy aimed at meeting the requirements for having the Galapagos 

Archipelago declared a FMD-free area without vaccination, and for redirecting the national eradication 

program. In addition, it provided advisory services for the drafting of the reference technical terms for 

the preparation of a project aimed at building the national reference laboratory for animal health diagnostic. 

As regards the request of support for Venezuela's national plan, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO was 

not able to meet it. 

Partial implementation of Resolution. 



RESOLUTION II 

ACTION OF OIE WITH REFERENCE TO ERADICATION PROGRAMS OF FOOT-AND-MOUTH 

DISEASE (FMD) 


Considering: 

The active participation of OIE in the development of FMD programs in certified FMD-free areas; 

The conclusions and recommendations of the OIE Mission to the Southern Cone, in compliance 

with a request from the CVP of MERCOSUR, 

RESOLVES: 

1. To thank OIE for its interest in supporting the development of the programs. 

2. To request OIE include representatives of the private sector to participate in its future technical 

missions to the region. 

LEVEL OF IMPLEMENTATION 

The OIE was consulted on the subject and replied that it had always attached great value to 

transparent relations with the countries and with the private sector in particular. The fact that no 

private sector representatives were included in its missions should not be interpreted as a deviation 

from this stance, especially because during both missions it sought to discuss the missions' 

objectives and views with the private sector, without compromising their confidential nature. The 

members of technical missions are appointed by OIE's Director and are subject to its code and 

regulations. 

Resolution implemented. 

RESOLUTION III 

IV INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP OF LABORATORY SPECIALISTS IN VESICULAR DISEASES 

Activities of Reference Laboratory 


Considering: 

The importance of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) diagnosis results as scientific basis for the 

status of the disease in South America; 

The relevance in confirmed outbreaks, of complementing diagnosis with the genetic characterization 

and the protection conferred by the vaccines used in the region to confront field trains (vaccine matching); 


9


The importance of presenting a consensual regional voice to international forums on validation and 

harmonization of methodologies; 

The need to strengthen the surveillance system including conclusive diagnosis in cases of negative 

suspicions of FMD; 

The importance of backing the recommendations of the IV International Workshop of Laboratory 

Specialists in Vesicular Diseases, which was held at PANAFTOSA-PAHO/WHO from October 30th to 

November 1st, 2006. 

RESOLVES: 

1. To endorse recommendations of the IV International Workshop of Laboratory Specialists in 

Vesicular Diseases, and in particular: 

2. To request PANAFTOSA-PAHO/WHO convoke a working group of laboratory and epidemiology 

specialists of the countries to support definition of the attributes of the tests for different objectives, 

incorporating the experience of the countries. 

3. That the services of the countries reinforce the forwarding to PANAFTOSA-PAHO/WHO of 

representative samples of all FMD-confirmed events for reference studies, including genetic 

characterization and vaccine matching, together with results of local analysis. 

4. That the services of the countries reinforce the collection and forwarding of adequate samples 

for a conclusive differential diagnosis. 

5. To request PANAFTOSA-PAHO/WHO activate mechanisms to strengthen the laboratories 

network through virtual forums, joint yearly reports, mobilization of resources and preparation of the 

basis for those reports. 

6. To continue holding meetings of laboratory specialists in vesicular diseases. 

7. That the countries, in cooperation with PANAFTOSA-PAHO/WHO, start field application of the I- 

ELISA 3ABC/EITB test in sheep, buffaloes, goats and swine. 


1. The joint "epidemiology laboratory" meeting could not be held for this specific purpose. However, 

PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO helped in the preparation and holding of joint meetings in the form of 

epidemiology laboratories under PAMA to define guidelines for laboratory evaluation and serological 

sampling criteria in High Surveillance zones, including viral circulation sampling, and for evaluating the 

effectiveness of vaccination. 

2. As regards reference activities related to FMD diagnosis, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO's laboratory 

supported diagnostic studies of one epithelium sample and three samples in Trizol, collected during 

the emergence of FMD in the locality of Cuatro Camadas, Ñuflo de Chávez, Santa Cruz, in Bolivia. 

These samples were tested for antigenic and molecular characterization and for vaccine matching. 

Ten epithelium samples inactivated in Trizol and one not inactivated sample from FMD episodes that 

occurred between 2006 and 2007 in Ecuador and Venezuela were also received. The molecular 



characterization results were included in the 2007 Annual Report of PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO's 

Laboratory that was distributed at this meeting. 

3. In respect of support to differential diagnosis, studies were reinforced for molecular detection 

and characterization of vesicular stomatitis, based on work done in cooperation with Colombia's ICA, 

of over 150 epitheliums representative of vesicular stomatitis circulating in the country in the last five 

years. Samples were also received for studying molecular diagnostic of bluetongue. Protocols and 

controls were also supplied for bluetongue molecular diagnosis to countries, by request. 

4. In 2007, the network's activity was reinforced by the designing of a matrix for the preparation of 

joint annual reports on the work of national network laboratories, as related in the 2007 Annual Report 

of PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO's Laboratory. Research was also done to identify the strengths of network 

laboratories, with a view to giving impetus to the mobilization of resources and to horizontal cooperation 

among the labs. This research's results are also included in the Annual Report. 

5. Proceeding with lab specialist meetings, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO hosted the 5th International 

Seminar for Lab Specialists in Vesicular Diseases, October 22-24, 2007. At this seminar issues 

pertaining to the quality of services and activities likely to reinforce the network were discussed. The 

seminar's report and recommendations were also included in the Laboratory's Annual Report. COSALFA 

is advised to ratify these conclusions and recommendations. 

6. As regards field application of the I-ELISA 3ABD / EITB test for other hosts, validation was concluded 

for buffaloes, based on samples from Brazil, and this species was included in the instructions for using kits. 

7. In respect of ovines, the processing of ovine serums in conjunction with LANAGRO/PE of Brazil's 

MAPA was begun by this laboratory, using field samples sent in. Field samples from Swine were not 

received. Together with Argentina's SENASA, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO is currently beginning to 

process Argentine sampling serums from this species. 

8. PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO presented to the OIE reference standard serums for ovine and swine, 

which were accepted by the ad hoc group. Their preparation is nearing completion. The first lot of kits 

for ovines has been completed and is being used for analyzing these serums.

RESOLVES: 

1. To request GIEFA inform officially and periodically the animal health services of the countries on the 

result of activities regarding the granting of complementary financial resources for the execution of PHEFA. 

2. To request GIEFA continue promoting the participation of the public and private sectors of the 

countries in discussions of priority actions, identification of investment headings and the corresponding 

budgetary estimate. 


1. During the period under consideration, several meetings were held, including one in Caracas, 

Venezuela, at which the GIEFA reported on the management of the group's financial resources to 

representatives of PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA/APHIS), the 

World Animal Health Organization (OIE), the Inter-American Development Bank (IBD), the Inter- 

American Institute for Cooperation in Agriculture (IICA), and the governments and private sector of the 

continent's countries. The need for members' participation in the search for donors was reiterated, as 

was the need for them and the international organizations to participate in GIEFA meetings. 

2. GIEFA, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO, and Brazil's National Council on Beef Cattle-CNPC reviewed 

GAP's plans (special projects in border zones, which require special funding) for priority zones. A draft 

budget was submitted for the binational zone along the Brazilian border with Ecuador and Colombia. A 

folder was prepared, with information on GIEFA members, in respect of each subregion, as well as 

documents issued by the group, which have been published in Portuguese, Spanish, and English, for 

distribution to the public and the private sectors of the continent's countries, with a view to obtaining 

resources for PHEFA. CNPC's support for printing the documents deserves mention. 

Resolution implemented 

RESOLUTION V 

INTERNATIONAL SEMINAR "THE LOCAL LEVEL: CRITICAL LINK IN MANAGEMENT OF ANIMAL 

HEALTH PROGRAMS" 


Considering: 

The subject of the Seminar, related to the acknowledgement of the importance of Local Systems of 

Veterinary Attention, which are a result of public-private integration in the operative management of 

health programs: 

RESOLVES: 

To endorse the recommendations of the Seminar and request PANAFTOSA-PAHO/WHO, in 

coordination with the Official Sanitary Services of the countries, follow up the fulfillment of the 

recommendations approved at the Seminar: 



01. To suggest to the countries the convenience of enlarging and diversifying actions concerning 

Veterinary Public Health- VPH, at local level, related to FMD eradication programs, to the 

improvement of animal production, prevention and control of zoonoses and diseases transmitted 

by food. 

02. To suggest to the countries to intensify efforts for the strengthening of strategic alliances 

between the official and private sectors as well as between sectors with larger and smaller 

productive development at the local level, for technology transfer and interchange, and also in 

support of field activities of the program, with the perspective of achieving and preserving common 

health goals. 

03. To request PANAFTOSA-PAHO/WHO continue information diffusion to the countries, through 

its Web page, on conceptual, methodological and operative aspects of the initiative of municipalities, 

markets and healthy schools, as well as experiences and projects which are being carried out in 

different countries of the Americas. 

04. To request veterinary services of the countries try and coordinate with health services, intersector 

and interprogrammatic action on animal health, zoonoses control, security and food safety 

within the strategy of municipalities and healthy communities and as a means for health promotion in 

the operative execution of sanitary programs. 

05. That Veterinary Attention Services - VAS promote at the local level a larger and better use of 

information for studies of productive-sanitary characterization of the livestock sector, management of 

the programs and administration of resources.

characterization of cattle production systems. 

09. Due to the administrative peculiarities of each country, encourage initiatives aimed at the stability, 

promotion and working motivation of local level staff, especially at border areas, to ensure sustainable 

programs. 

10. Due to the administrative peculiarities of each country, promote the incorporation of LUVAs in 

operative decentralization procedures of animal health activities. 

11. That VAS should promote the possibility of technical training for students of veterinary sciences 

at LUVAs. 

12. That VAS should promote and support the incorporation of the community in the follow-up of 

vaccination programs as well as other health activities developed at the local level. 

13. That VAS should consider the inclusion of representatives of the animal production chain in 

structures destined to the preparation, execution and evaluation of animal health programs. 


13



As regards this resolution, the interaction between the health and the agricultural sectors has been 

reinforced in 2007 by two initiatives: "Faces, Voices and Places," and "Healthy Cities and Communities." 

The former is PAHO/WHO's strategy to address the health and development determinants required 

for achieving the Millennium Development Goals in vulnerable communities. 

In 2007, Argentina, Bolivia, Cuba, and Uruguay, among other countries, incorporated components 

of Veterinary Public Health-VPH into their strategies. The PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO's 2008-2012 

Strategic Plan calls for reinforcement of intersectoral and interprogram activities with a view to addressing 

health determinants, and the PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO work program was linked to health determinants 

and to "Faces, Voices, and Places." 

As to the reactivation of agreements, a meeting is scheduled for the first semester of 2008 on the 

Brazil-Guyana-Venezuela Tripartite Agreement, in view of the need to develop joint programs for 

controlling and eradicating diseases of socioeconomic importance. 

Resolution partially implemented.

III - Other activities carried out by PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO 

1 - Inter-American Group for FMD eradication (GIEFA) 

In addition to what has been mentioned in relation to Resolution IV, GIEFA's Presidency and Secretariat 

met on the 14th and 15th of January with the U.S. Ambassador in Brazil, the Brazilian Minister of 

Agriculture, and other authorized sectors. At that meeting, incentive was requested for completing 

FMD eradication in South America. The CNPC, APHIS, the Canadian Embassy, and PANAFTOSA/ 

PAHO-WHO also participated in the meeting. The Brazilian public and private sectors were willing to 

support FMD eradication in Bolivia and Venezuela, and included the new program for FMD eradication 

in the Amazon Region. 

The meetings with CNPC, SINDAN, Merial, the Brazilian Meat Exporters Association, McDonald's, 

and Global Beef in São Paulo, January 16-17, resulted in the private sector's participation in GIEFA's 

programs. Merial donated $ 1 million, or 7.5 million vaccine doses to the FMD eradication program. 

The Brazilian Meat Exporters Association said that it is committed to the FMD eradication and that it 

has already spent 2.5 million dollars in funding relevant programs in the last ten years. Global Beef 

presented data on beef trade and prospects for 2008, which should exceed 2007 figures. The private 

sector showed interest in the idea of having private enterprises designating a contractor to work on 

FMD eradication and supervise the business community's support for meeting the program's shortages. 

McDonald will submit the request to its headquarters. 

2 - Permanent Veterinary Committee-CVP 

PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO had various meetings with CVP and acts as Technical Secretariat for 

CVP's Animal Health Commission-CSA and as Technical Coordinator of the Permanent Technical 

Commission in border areas. In this latter capacity, it participated in CVP's evaluation of the five ZAV 

missions. It also helped set the timetable for CVP's ZAV activities in the year, under the approved Plan 

of Action. 

PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO has also participated in CVP's special meetings on the harmonization 

of initiatives in border zones of Southern Cone countries, especially Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, and 

Paraguay. In addition, it supports the execution of the project in connection with activities related to 

serum-epidemiological samples, vaccine quality control, and the countries' epidemiological 

characterization. 

In June, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO met with lab and epidemiology specialists from Mercosur 

countries to discuss criteria for developing a longitudinal information system based on surveillance of 

establishments at risk. 

3 - International Animal Health Organization-OIE 

In December 2007, a second OIE Technical Mission was sent to CVP member countries. The 

mission was headed by Dr. Gideon Bruckner and consisted of Dr. Cristóbal Cepeda, Dr. Michel Lombard, 

Dr. Howard Batho, Dr. Alf-Eckert Fussel, and Dr. Paulo Kloeck. Dr. Rossana Allende, Dr. Gilfredo 

Darsie, and Dr. Victor Saraiva represented PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO as OIE's reference organization. 

Two groups took field trips along the border between Argentina and Bolívia, between Argentina and 



Paraguay, and between Brazil and Paraguay. A third group visited the official vaccine control laboratories 

in Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay, as well as the Miguel Rubino Laboratory in Uruguay and Brazil's 

vaccine distribution central. 

The Mission's final report was submitted to OIE's General Director, who recognized the progress 

made in some regions but pointed out the need to reinforce some activities and to implement initiatives 

already approved. The Mission's report will be presented at this meeting. 

4 - Epidemiological information and surveillance 

Despite the last two COSALFAs' reiterated recommendation urging the countries to use the 

Information and Surveillance System in its Web version (SivCont), Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, and Paraguay 

have not done so (the last to do so was Peru in 2006. Unfortunately, Ecuador and Venezuela, which 

had used it since the first fortnight of January 2004, stopped doing so: Venezuela, owing to the fire at 

the Ministry of Agriculture in the third quarter of 2004, has not resumed its use of the system, whereas 

the reason why Ecuador stopped using it is not known. It should be noted that these countries, similarly 

to others that have never used SivCont on the Web, with the exception of Chile, continue to send in 

their weekly communications to the Continental Surveillance System in the same format as before, 

now by e-mail. 

The establishment of an interface through the SivCont page on the Web, which makes available to 

any user the sanitary information contained in the Continental Surveillance System, continues to depend 

on the participation of a greater number of countries in the system. 

Colombia and Brazil, which have used it since 2004 and 2005, respectively, are the countries that 

have taken most advantage of the facilities provided by SivCont for upgrading their own national 

information and epidemiological surveillance systems. Colombia has already decentralized SivCont 

into two Epidemiological Coordination offices, and Brazil has done the same into its 26 federated 

states and the Federal District. This makes it possible for the Veterinary Care System's Regional Units 

to post information on the occurrence of sanitary events, pursuant to the decentralization of the inclusion 

of information on attention to and notification of sanitary events into the countries' surveillance systems, 

down to the local level. 

The Situation of Health in PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO's portal continues to run and the number of 

users is very large and includes the countries' official health services, academics, students, and livestock 

sector agents in general. 

In respect of PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO technical cooperation in epidemiological surveillance, 

initiatives developed with Brazil stand out, related to studies on the evaluation of immunity to FMD; with 

Bolivia, in the selection of properties for establishing effective surveillance mechanisms; and with 

CVP, in strengthening the information and epidemiological surveillance systems in the High Surveillance 

Zone. 

5 - Cooperation project with the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply of Brazil 

In 2007, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO completed the Technical Cooperation Agreement (TCC) between 

Brazil's Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply and the Pan-American Health Organization- 


17


PAHO to strengthen Brazil's Animal Health Programs. The Work Plan has the following components: 

training and capacity-building; support for MAPA laboratories; technical cooperation for animal health 

programs; and support for information and surveillance systems. 

Training Courses were offered for auditors; on equine health; for managers of national rabies, 

FMD, and brucellosis/tuberculosis programs; on control of wild rabies transmitted by bats; and on 

geoprocessing. In all, sixteen courses were offered, which were attended by 595 professionals from 

MAPA and from state agencies charged with implementing animal health programs in Brazil. 

MAPA's diagnosis laboratory was supplied with biological materials, kits, diagnosis sets, in addition 

to equipment and inputs such as reference antigens produced in other countries. It also received Elisa 

3ABC + EITB kits sufficient for testing 43,000 samples from Mato Grosso do Sul, and for monitoring 

FMD-free zones. An additional 5,895 tests were provided for studying the population's immunity in the 

states eligible for exporting to the European Union. 

Support was provided for acquisition of equipment and material for the work of 140 herbivore rabies 

control groups. GPS equipment and kits for detecting the presence of animal protein in feed were also 

provided. 

The TCC contributed to the strengthening of MAPA's Information and Surveillance System through 

the adoption of technologies developed by PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO for the establishment of data 

banks to allow the undertaking of studies on productive and epidemiological characterization, which in 

turn make possible the assessment of sanitary risks and reinforce emergency systems. 

6 - International standards research and discussion 

Through its professionals, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO has participated in OIE's ad hoc groups in 

the development of activities geared to the regional and international harmonization of diagnosis 

procedures and the establishment of quality management systems, as well as in discussions on 

noncapsidal proteins, antigen banks, and vaccines. 

Among the activities developed by OIE's reference laboratories network, harmonization related to 

vaccine matching is being planed. PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO's participation in this undertaking is 

restricted, given the impossibility of introducing strains into the region. Studies must be further advanced 

in respect of the risks of introducing strains into our regions. 

PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO has worked with the International Atomic Energy Agency to identify lines 

of research that are relevant to the FMD global situation. 

7 - Biosafety 

In respect of Biosafety, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO has extended technical cooperation to three 

member countries in respect of various issues. 

In Brazil, it continued to participate in the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply's Biosafety 

Commission on the FMD virus, with emphasis on following up the implementation of projects for the 

building of new facilities for producing vaccines and FMD diagnosis labs of the official network. Support 

was also extended to the LANAGRO/Minas Gerais to set in operation the maximum Biosafety lab for 



diagnosis and vaccine control, and to the Desidério Finamor Veterinary Research Institute, of the State 

of Rio Grande do Sul's Science and Technology Department, for drafting a basic architecture plan for 

the construction of a Biosafety Level 3-Agriculture veterinary diagnosis lab. 

In Colombia, work in conjunction with the Colombian Agricultural and Livestock Institute was 

continued on the construction of the Animal Health Research Center-CEISA's Biosafety Level 3- 

Agriculture. The LIMOR lab was accredited by the National Biosafety Commission, with the backing of 

the South American Commission, for manipulating the FMD virus in its new facilities, and has resumed 

production. 

In Ecuador, we have supported SESA in drafting the technical reference terms for the calling for 

bids for the construction of a national reference veterinary diagnosis lab. 

8 - Prospects for technical cooperation in veterinary public health 

Transfer of lab activities to LANAGRO/MG: 

To serve international requirements for work under Biosafety conditions consistent with the risk 

inherent in the manipulation of the FMD virus in infectious form, the MAPA-PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO 

Commission was set up. It began working on the definition and implementation of measures for 

transferring the PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO activities from the LANAGRO/PA to the LANAGRO/MG. In 

this connection, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO is working with MAPA to adapt and set in operation the 

facilities and methodologies for the work involved in virus manipulation. 

As regards the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Supply's Biosafety Level 3-Agriculture 

Lab Unit, support is being given for the operational recovery of the automated properties surveillance 

system, the steam distribution system, the electric backup system, and the designing of standard 

operational procedures. Work has also begun on transferring LANAGRO/MG's equipment and on 

training its staff for introducing the culture of BHK cells in suspension, and of cell strains in one layer, 

to support diagnosis activities. The beginning of tests is scheduled for August 2008 for the lab's 

certification for the FMD virus by the National Biosafety Commission. 

Steps are being taken toward the establishment of alliances to facilitate the mobilization of resources 

and for the transfer of some of the lab's attributions to academic institutions or to public-private initiatives. 

To date, approach has been made to the São Paulo University, the Brazilian Agricultural and Livestock 

Research Enterprise-EMBRAPA, and the National Syndicate of Animal Health Products Industries- 

SINDAN Brazil. 

Zoonoses 

In 2007, eleven cases of human rabies transmitted by dog were recorded (two in Bolivia, one in 

Brazil, two in Colombia, five in Haiti, and one in Guatemala), as well as thirteen cases of bat transmitted 

rabies (one in Colombia, by an unidentified bat species; eleven in Peru; and one in Venezuela, by a 

vampire bat). Bolivia, El Salvador, and Haiti have reinforced their vaccination programs against dog 

rabies, with encouraging results as to coverage and the sensitiveness of their surveillance systems. 

As regards wild rabies, initiatives in Brazil stand out, which were implemented under an agreement 

between MAPA and PAHO/WHO. These initiatives enhanced the country's capabilities and ensured 


19


resources for all the region's countries. The regional plan, which has been updated under the RIMSA 

14 mandate, is being implemented in each country according to a set of determinants defined by the 

11th REDIPRA. 

The risks of visceral leishmaniosis, vampire bat-transmitted rabies, leptospirosis, and hydratidosis 

and the accidents with poisonous animals remain a serious health problem, affecting the more 

vulnerable groups more heavily. The global risk of emerging zoonoses also remains high. The main 

objective of cooperation is to strengthen networks and capabilities in veterinary public health, especially 

at the local level. 

Together with OIE, OIRSA, and Mexico's Departments of Agriculture, Livestock, Rural Development, 

Fisheries, and Food, PAHO/WHO reviewed cooperation for programs to control brucellosis and 

tuberculosis caused by the Mycobacterium bovis in Latin America. Attention was called to the 

asymmetrical burden falling on the poor rural sector and to the need to (a) ensure the reactors' 

segregation; (b) mobilize local resources to prevent contagion; and (c) stress the importance of 

eliminating tuberculosis in animal reservoirs as a condition for eliminating human tuberculosis. 

An experts' consultation was held in conjunction with Brazil's Butantã Institute and Health Surveillance 

Department for coordinating regional actions for prevention and care of accidents with poisonous 

animals. This served to reinforce networks so as to ensure the serum supply and the care capabilities 

in more remote areas. Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Guatemala, Mexico, 

Mozambique, Panama, Paraguay, and Venezuela took part in the consultation, as did the countries' 

health and agriculture sectors and the international organizations. PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO provided 

technical cooperation for strengthening the continental and national surveillance, prevention, and 

preparedness systems against highly pathogenic or zoonotic avian influenza and bovine spongiform 

encephalopathy. 

Food safety 

Cooperation extended by PAHO/WHO is based on the regional plan for technical cooperation in 

food safety, approved by the Member States in 2005. This regional plan is consistent with WHO's 

global strategy for food safety. The core strategy is the adoption of the risk analysis model: evaluation, 

management and communication, and education. This report aims at informing the 35th COSALFA 

delegates about the changes in the cooperation focus pursuant to the new food safety strategies, so 

as to reduce the social and economic impact as well as the health effects of food-transmitted diseases, 

and diminish the presence of biological and chemical contaminants. 

1. The traditional food control programs that are still in place in many countries of the region 

concentrate on the final product, as does the inspection of packinghouses or food processing plants. 

The last ten years have shown that traditional procedures focused on narrowly defined problems are 

not always sufficient for tackling new challenges. The bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), the 

avian flu, as well as the emergence of contaminants such as dioxide are examples of where the 

problem of inputs start, but the most serious consequences for public health occur along the entire 

food chain. 

2. Thus, the responsibility for providing healthy food should be shared by all, from the supplier of 

inputs to the consumer. This opens up a new space for the action of food safety programs. Biological 



contaminants, such as bacteria, virus, parasites, and protozoans can contaminate food during the 

production process or harvesting owing to contaminated water, incorrect transportation, or mode of 

preparation. Chemical contaminants can contaminate food along the entire chain, and include 

mycotoxins, pesticide and antibiotic residues, and heavy metals. 

3. This expansion throughout the food chain demands a redefinition of the role of the State and of 

the private sector. The State, which includes the ministries of agriculture, health, commerce, and 

tourism, among others, works in close association with its allies, such as universities and research 

institutes, in evaluating the new technologies and tendencies. The private sector, as the owner of 

products and processes, should take the lead and assume the responsibility for defining, supporting, 

and maintaining the food safety policies and programs. 

4. Accordingly, PAHO's technical cooperation with the regional food safety program, extended through 

the receiving country's advisors to the Veterinary Public Health that make up the Food Safety Technical 

Group, concentrates on strengthening the five pillars of the food safety programs in each country. 

a) Legislation and regulations: to strengthen food regulations, assigning responsibilities along the 

chain; to define the obligations of public authorities; to recognize international obligations; to 

define control and sanction mechanisms; to protect consumer rights; to follow scientific and 

technological advances; to be attuned to international standards; and to effectively coordinate 

and keep active the Codex Alimentarius national committee, the focal point and its technical 

committees. Currently, seventeen countries are included in the LEGALIM data base and use it 

to harmonize their regulations with the Codex. A significant example of this is the Central American 

region, which is close to having its food codex. 

b) Control programs management: to promote food control management programs, whose 

objectives include public health, food security, and environmental protection and to foster food 

trade. In addition, management should be part of the food chain, be characterized by shared 

public and private responsibility, and be endowed with appropriate human and financial resources. 

It should also have an annual and medium range operational program, with evaluation and 

monitoring instruments, and base its decisions on risk analysis. It should also count on an 

efficient register of food establishments and be capable of participating in Codex Alimentarius 

meetings, bilateral and multilateral agreements, and other international integration activities. 

PAHO, together with IICA, promotes the use of the development, vision and strategy instrument 

to strengthen food safety services. Work in the Andean Region is yielding its first results. In 

2007, twenty-four candidates finished the first master's program in the management of food 

safety programs and control developed by PAHO. OIRSA actively participates in this initiative. 

Currently, there is a new group for Latin America, and the course will be offered in the Englishspeaking 

Caribbean by the West Indies University. 

c) Inspection services: as to these services, PAHO promotes a system to inspect foods along the 

entire chain, not only domestic and imported foodstuffs but also foods for export. It evaluates 

HACCP plans and their implementation; verifies if products and establishments are in compliance 

with regulations; recognizes, collects, and transmits evidence in case of infraction of the law; 

encourages the adoption of techniques grounded on science and technology in the food chain; 

fosters voluntary adherence to procedures that ensure quality; and appropriately responds to 

emergencies. PAHO has also a unique training program in this area, using teaching materials 


21


and methodology for adult training. It trains professionals of all the member countries. In the 

2006-2007 biennial, emphasis was laid on Central America. 

d) Monitoring of food contaminants and epidemiological surveillance of food-transmitted diseases. 

In connection with this pillar, PAHO strengthens the countries' capacity for risk analysis and the 

national food analysis centers. It encourages the countries to have an integrated, accredited 

labs network and the corresponding program to ensure quality. It is important to stress the role 

of networks, such as RILAA and PulseNet, for Latin America, and of WHO's global program for 

surveillance of diseases transmitted by food and other enteric agents, under which member 

countries can enhance their capabilities for quality diagnosis, the use of molecular biological 

techniques in the surveillance of food-borne diseases, and the exchange of timely information 

on controlling these diseases. 

e) Education and public relations. Lastly, PAHO enhances the countries' capabilities so that they can 

have an educational, training, communication, and information system provided with a public relation 

mechanism, as well as educational programs aimed at food handlers and at increasing the 

knowledge of the various players in the food chain about food safety. It strengthens the countries' 

capacity for having similar educational programs aimed at public servants, to improve their 

knowledge about food inspection and standards, as well as at the ongoing training of lab personnel. 

A project funded by extra-budgetary resources for the application of WHO's Five Keys to ensure 

food safety is under way in elementary schools of three countries - Bolivia, Guatemala, and 

Venezuela. The ultimate objective is the incorporation of these Five Keys into the curriculum. 

Another project, funded with AGFUND resources, is aimed at the application of basic food safety 

rules in healthy markets in four countries - Bolivia, Dominican Republic, Guyana, and Paraguay. 

In January 2006, the Technical Group on Food Safety was housed in the PANAFTOSA/PAHO- 

WHO facilities in the municipality of Duque de Caxias, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, immediately 

following the extinction of Argentina's Pan-American Food Protection and Zoonoses Institute (INPPAZ). 

PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO technical and administrative infrastructure heightens cooperation in food 

safety, with a systemic approach from the field to the table. This infrastructure favors technical 

cooperation with the countries, as well as with advisers on veterinary public health, under the supervision 

of the Health Surveillance and Disease Management Sector. 

9 - Interagency and interinstitutional coordination (FAO, IICA, USDA, CFIA, CAN) 

There was participation in OIE-FAO meetings in Buenos Aires, Argentina and in Lima, Peru for the 

conception of a project in support of PHEFA's implementation in geographic spaces identified as 

critical for the achievement of the disease eradication target. 

At the Lima meeting held in the Andean Community of Nations-CAN facilities, last February 27-29, 

which was attended by delegates from animal health services of Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, and 

Peru, we helped draft the project aimed at FMD's eradication in the Andean sub-region, emphasizing 

the strengthening of the programs of Ecuador, Bolivia, and international border zones. 

The project, under FAO's coordination and to be funded by the Italian government, will permit the 

organization of the Project Coordination Unit, which includes planning, monitoring, and evaluation of 

sub-regional strategic actions. 



PAHO and CAN reasserted FMD eradication as a cooperation priority, into which the aforementioned 

project fits, under the Cooperation Project between the Pan-American Sanitary Office and the Andean 

Community of Nations-CAN. Specialists from the Animal Health Services of Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, 

and Peru, members of the Technical Committee on Agricultural and Livestock Health-Animal Health- 

COTASA drafted the 2006-2007 Operational Plan for the Sub-regional FMD Eradication Program, 

which became official for the member countries under Resolution 1078-CAN. 

The aforementioned plan is a contribution to the intra-regional and extra-regional production and 

trade integration, as it permits controlling cross-border diseases and ensuring the quality and safety of 

foods that impact on the countries' health and economy. 

Physical and virtual meetings allowed monitoring the implementation of the project, which has just 

served as reference for a FAO-OIE cooperation project to be soon implemented with the support of 

PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO and other international cooperation agencies. 

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency-CFIA and PAHO/WHO have celebrated an agreement to 

provide US$600,000 for enhancing the national services' capacity of response to suspicion of vesicular 

diseases. The first component is the training of lab personnel of some countries in diagnosis techniques 

and the acquisition of equipment and materials for diagnosis technical installations. This will enhance the 

operational exchange among labs covered by the project and these labs' relations with Canada's National 

Laboratory in Winnipeg and with PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO in its capacity as continental reference. 

The second component is the adaptation of the North American model of animal disease simulation 

(NAADSM) to the livestock production reality and to the FMD epidemiology in South America. For the 

coming month of April a training program at PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO has been scheduled, and the 

implementation of pilot projects in the countries has been planned to test the model. The agreement is 

to be presented in detail at this 35th COSALFA. 

Discussion was started and the official Argentine delegate expressed Argentina's interest in 

celebrating technical cooperation agreements with PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO, similar to the ones 

celebrated with Brazil. Paraguay's official delegate joined Argentina in complimenting PANAFTOSA/ 

PAHO-WHO for extending technical cooperation with a regional focus (CVP, PAMA) and recommended 

the continuity of this line of work, urging the countries to support PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO. Consistently 

with PHEFA's objectives, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO will divide its initiatives between the Mercosur 

and CAN regions. 

3. FOOT-AND-MOUTH DISEASE SITUATION IN THE COUNTRIES 

Dr. Victor Saraiva, Chief, Vesicular Diseases Unit at PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO, summarized the 

FMD situation in the region, stressing the continued occurrence of the disease in the same countries 

as in the previous year. He highlighted the concentration of foci in Ecuador and Venezuela, FMD's 

extensive geographical distribution, and the coexistence, in Venezuela, of two types of virus. He also 

mentioned the progress achieved by some South American countries during the period covered, while 

others still have difficulty in achieving PHEFA's objectives. Another fact worth noting is the occurrence 

of New Jersey vesicular stomatitis both in South American countries and in Central America, despite a 

slight decline; in view of a historical series observed, this could signal the beginning of a new epidemic 

cycle of the disease. 


23


Dr. Francisco Muzio, Uruguay's official delegate, commented that the presentation offered hope for 

eradication, but the way is not clear yet. He pointed out the advance of surveillance in all the countries, 

a sign not only of the effectiveness of the services but also of producers' participation. He further 

suggested that joint work should be done in border areas. 

The discussion also addressed issues related to the High Surveillance Zone and particularly to this 

zone's special situation regarding the joint initiatives implemented by the countries sharing it. The 

program's current status, especially in Ecuador, Bolivia, and Venezuela was mentioned, and Colombia 

said that it maintains about fifty control posts on the border with Venezuela because of the free status, 

with vaccination, already assured for most of its territory. The situation of international agreements on 

animal health in border areas was also mentioned, with emphasis on Ecuador's situation. Some 

delegates alleged difficulty in commenting the working document distributed during the meeting. But, 

owing to the countries' delay in sending in their reports, it is impossible to distribute the report in 

advance. Delegates were urged to send in their comments and corrections to PANAFTOSA/PAHO- 

WHO as soon as possible. 

Ecuador's official delegate reiterated the need to begin control by the country's endemic zones. 

Mr. Balsamino Fernández, Venezuela's private delegate, mentioned the administrative problems 

on the field, which caused an increase in the number of foci in the country in 2002-2003. Currently, the 

official vaccination program seeks to cover the entire population and reduce endemism. 

Guyana's delegate asked PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO to convene a border meeting with Brazil and 

Venezuela, given recent progress in communication routes linking the three countries. 

Paraguay's official delegate mentioned the progress made in surveillance, which has confirmed a 

high number of suspicions, but pointed out the need to unify the classification criteria. He formally 

requested PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO to establish basic criteria for determining a suspicion. 

4. OIE'S PRESENTATION 

Dr. Luís Barcos, OIE's Regional Coordinator for the Americas, referred then to the facts leading to 

the CVP-OIE commitment and to the results of the two missions to the Southern Cone, particularly to 

an area defined as being of high risk near the borders shared by Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, and Paraguay. 

He mentioned the two technical visits and the resulting commitments, as well as the recognition of the 

need for joint initiatives by the countries in a coordinated, sustained manner, as is required in border 

zones (high surveillance zones). 

The initiatives aim at strengthening structures, standardizing attention to foci, registration of all 

establishments, and the countries' access to information of epidemiologic significance produced 

in the High Surveillance Zone. Commitments were undertaken to ensure the control of vaccines 

against NSPs, to harmonize vaccine application, establish harmonized seroepidemiologic 

monitoring, offer training in early detection, and define PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO participation in 

the project. The missions evaluated compliance with these commitments in their 2006 report, 

observing that often the boundaries of the zone in question were not clearly defined. The missions 

recommended that the countries' status should not be restored, unless a regional approach was 

adopted. The 2007 mission report stated that despite the progress observed, some initiatives 



were not fully implemented and this is not propitious to the requested regional approach. The 

need for high surveillance in the zone was reiterated and a surveillance scheme was proposed, 

based on pre-shipment inspection followed by notification to the destination; and in animal 

concentrations. The report reiterated that the agreement's life will start when the commitments 

undertaken in 2006 are honored. As to the reconfirmation of the countries' status, OIE's next 

assembly will discuss the possibility of the countries' submitting information about their surveillance 

scheme consistent with OIE's criteria for detecting viral circulation. Bolivia's problems were 

mentioned, including structural problems that place the regional sanitary condition at risk and that 

need to be urgently addressed. OIE is scheduling studies together with PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO 

about FMD surveillance and establishing a matrix of program resources and needs to ensure a 

better distribution of functions among the countries, regional institutions, and technical and financial 

cooperation agencies. Studies are planned on cost/benefit and on compensation mechanisms in 

emergencies in some countries, under supervision of OIE's Regional Representation. Dr. Barcos 

announced that two meetings will be held in 2008: a laboratories meeting and the World Conference 

on Foot-and-Mouth Disease in Asuncion, December 1-5. 

During the discussions, some delegates contested some points of the presentation. CVP's 

Presidency informed that it will promote an analysis of the document by the delegates of the countries 

visited and that their conclusions will then be submitted to the OIE. In respect of Bolivia's situation, it 

became clear that there are difficulties for cooperation between the country's public and private sectors, 

which deserves a motion regarding the problem. 

5. PRE-COSALFA INTERNATIONAL SEMINAR REPORT 

Dr. Mateo Schettino, a temporary consultant of PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO, presented the 

conclusions and recommendations of the International Seminar on "South America free of foot-andmouth 

disease: new paradigms," held March 10-11, prior to the 35th COSALFA Meeting. The seminar 

was attended by over 300 professionals and technicians who actively participated in the discussion of 

each topic. The seminar produced a series of recommendations on related issues that came up at the 

time. These recommendations were submitted to the consideration of the delegates with a view to 

their approval together with COSALFA resolutions, if pertinent. 

Some interventions raised objections to some of the recommendations, whose definitive version 

was included in a resolution. 

6. GIEFA/PHEFA PRESIDENT'S REPORT 

Dr. Phillip Bradshaw, GIEFA's President, presented a report on GIEFA's activities pertaining to the 

group's organization, visits to prospective donors, and the preparation of the documentation for seeking 

private sources of additional resources in complementation of those already offered by the countries, 

in accordance with the focus on regions of epidemiologic significance. He mentioned contributions 

already received in support of initiatives on the Brazilian border, as well as the possibilities for marketing 

animal protein from South America.

7. NATIONAL PROGRAMS OF BOLIVIA, ECUADOR, AND VENEZUELA: CURRENT 

STATE AND PROSPECTS 

Bolivia 

The Bolivian delegates made a brief presentation on the situation of Bolivia's livestock sector, 73 

percent of which is concentrated in the country's East. They spoke about the establishment of SENASAG 

in 2001 and of the difficulties that since 2006 have put the service in an uncomfortable position that has 

further worsened owing to the precarious relations between the public and the private sectors. The 

program has already completed fourteen vaccination cycles, with 80-percent coverage in some areas. 

The official delegate observed that the report presented was mistaken as to the number of foci recorded 

in the country in 2007, which should be considered by the COSALFA Secretariat, and reiterated that 

foci were not observed after January 2007. Coordination difficulties, the end of the IBD loan, and the 

expiration of agreements with the municipalities have led to the search for alternative sources. To this 

end, some initiatives were undertaken for developing departmental structures for providing veterinary 

attention in parallel with SENASAG. These issues were discussed by the delegates and the situation is 

already known by regional institutions, which have already taken steps to support joint work by SENASAG 

and the private sector. 

Ecuador 

Dr. Gustavo Miño and Dr. Luís Naveda, of SESA, made a brief report on the disease's situation in 

the country and on SESA's structure, mentioning also the government's vaccine subsidies policy. 

They said that their country attaches priority to the recognition of the Galapagos Archipelago and is 

going to work toward this objective, together with the continental part. Efforts will be concentrated in 

the eastern region in 2010 and in the rest of the country in 2011. Dr. Rodrigo Mena, Ecuadorian MAGAP's 

Undersecretary for Production Promotion, reiterated that combating foot-and-mouth disease is a national 

priority. Delegates reiterated the request that international technical cooperation should be geared to 

helping Ecuador meet the proposed objectives. 

Venezuela 

Dr. Mercedes Campos, of SASA, spoke about some aspects of the Venezuelan FMD eradication 

program. She mentioned that vaccination against FMD, rabies, and brucellosis is free for small 

cattle raisers, at a cost of 122 million dollars. Vaccination against FMD is compulsory nationwide 

and is coordinated with the private sector, in support of the cold chain, through the Integral Agricultural 

Health Brigades-BRISAIs. This program's coverage reaches 86 percent of the population established 

by census. However, the foci detected and the delay in the delivery of vaccines in the period hampered 

field activities. Dr. Campos mentioned the incorporation of laboratories into the national program 

and the opening of the Caraguaná Quarantine Station to receive animals, owing to the demand for 

animals from Brazil to offset the meat deficit. There is political will on the part of producers to 

support the State. 



8. OTHER ISSUES 

During this session, the following topics were addressed: Forum on the screwworm; Report on the 

CANADA/PAHO Project; Report on activities sponsored by APHIS/USDA; brucellosis and tuberculosis 

survey; tribute to LANAGRO/MAPA; and release of the book on the Plate River Basin. 

Forum on the screwworm fly 

This forum, coordinated by Dr. Juan González, of the Mexican-American Commission on Screwworm 

Eradication-COMEXA, consisted in presentations about the impact of endemic infestation by 

Cochliomyia ssp that affects both animal production and human health in Central America, the Caribbean, 

and some South American countries. Data were presented on screwworm fly control based on the 

distribution of sterile, irradiated flies produced in special facilities. The program has the decisive 

participation of livestock associations where it is being implemented. The detection of infestation in the 

Southern Cone led to the development of a project backed by COMEXA to establish a screwworm 

control pilot-area in the municipalities on the Brazilian-Uruguayan border. 

Canada/PAHO Project 

Dr. Afonso Clavijo, of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency-CFIA, spoke about the project's origin, 

composition, and resources. The project's objective is to strengthen the capabilities for laboratorial 

diagnosis of foot-and-mouth disease in some South American countries and the adaptation of this 

model used in North America to FMD productive-epidemiologic conditions in South America. The 

agreement counts on resources donated by the Canadian government and on PANAFTOSA/PAHO- 

WHO's participation in the programming and coordination of activities. Despite some diverging opinions, 

the inclusion of other sanitary problems into COSALFA discussions was favored and this is being 

done by PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO in the context of comprehensive technical cooperation extended 

by Veterinary Public Health in connection with zoonoses and food safety. This line of joint work with 

other agencies will be followed and COSALFA will continue to address other issues related to Public 

Veterinary Health, without losing the focus on FMD, which is PHEFA's object. PHEFA's completion 

date in 2009 was questioned, as some countries have already indicated 2011 as the likely deadline for 

achieving the envisaged objectives. 

APHIS/USDA activities 

Dr. César Orozco provided information on APHIS activities in South American countries in support 

of national programs, in the form of technical and financial assistance. APHIS activities in Bolivia have 

extended for six years already and for five years in Ecuador and Venezuela, and are concentrated on 

the acquisition of materials and equipment for vaccination campaigns. In Paraguay, its activities began 

in 2007 and are aimed mainly at strengthening the border zones, concentrated on supporting GIEFA 

and on maintaining bilateral agreements. 


27


Presentation on brucellosis and tuberculosis 

Dr. Fernando Leanes, who is responsible for PANAFTOSA/PAHO-Who's zoonoses project, referred 

to the results of the interagency meeting on "Analysis of the Situation of National Programs for the 

Prevention of Brucellosis and Tuberculosis (M. bovis): PAHO/WHO, OIE, IICA, OIRSA," held in Mexico 

City, with the support of Mexico's SSA and SGARPA and the participation of program directors of 

Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Paraguay, and 

Peru. There was general agreement on the need to ensure the interaction between the Veterinary 

Services and the Ministries of Health to reduce the risks of transmission of these diseases to humans, 

particularly in the case of more vulnerable groups. In respect of animal health, Dr. Leanes underlined 

the countries' efforts toward the certification of disease-free establishments. He also stressed the 

need for a mechanism to ensure effective segregation of animals that are reactors to these diseases, 

for local initiatives to prevent contagion in exposed groups, and for guaranteeing massive immune 

protection of heifers against brucellosis in countries where this disease is prevalent. 

Tribute to LANAGRO/MAPA 

Dr. Albino Belotto, PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO's Director, paid tribute to MAPA's LANAGRO/PA for 

its activities developed in conjunction with PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO. Since 1998, this laboratory has 

worked in reference activities related to FMD on behalf of the countries of the region. Dr. Francisco 

Aírton Nogueira, the laboratory's Director, was also honored for his cooperation with PANAFTOSA/ 

PAHO-WHO. 

Presentation of the book on the River Plate Basin 

Thereafter, the just-released book on the International Technical Cooperation on Foot-and-Mouth 

Disease Control and Eradication in the River Plate Basin, written by Dr. Fernando Dora, PWR/Uruguay, 

was presented. The book describes the project's origin, development, and advances and the difficulties 

it faced. The project was considered successful and has had highly positive consequences for the 

countries of the region, as endemism has declined and even been eradicated in some countries. 

Final information 

In view of some delegates' questioning about manipulation in Argentina of strains considered exotic 

to South America, Dr. Rodolfo Bellinzoni, representing the Biogénesis Laboratory, explained that the 

laboratory no longer manipulates the 01 Taiwan virus or any other exotic strain. According to him, 

information about the importation of SAT or ASIA strains is no longer pertinent, as they are inactivated 

antigens certified by SENASA and kept by the Biogénesis Laboratory. As he was not a delegate, Dr. 

Bellinzoni was not entitled to speak; thus, Dr. Abraham Falczuk, Argentina's official delegate, took the 

floor and endorsed as his own Dr. Bellinzoni's statements. PANAFTOSA-PAHO/WHO recalled the 

proposal of that are considered exotic the strains of virus not isolated from clinical field cases in South 

America, resolution taken in COSALFA XXIX- Paraguay 2001. 

The Ex Officio Secretary suggested that the South American Biosafety Commission should be 

convened to address issues related to the definition of strains. COSALFA's Secretary requested 



Argentina's SENASA to submit a formal communication about this matter for the information of member 

countries. 

Owing to the lack of definition about the 36th COSALFA's venue, as both Guyana and Colombia 

had volunteered, the Ex Officio Secretary suggested that the Secretariat should make the pertinent 

consultations and inform the member countries of the final decision. 

The Ex Officio Secretary referred to COHEFA's next meeting, which will review the achievement of 

PHEFA's objectives and discuss the possibility of extending the 2009 deadline for achieving the 

eradication goal. 

He thanked the 35th Meeting's presidency and secretariat, and particularly Dr. Rodrigo Mena, its 

rapporteur. 

9. CLOSURE 

The closing ceremony was conducted by Dr. Albino Belotto, Dr. Jamil Gomes de Souza, Dr. Luís 

Barcos, Dr. Rodrigo Mena, and Dr. José Luís Vieira Severo who spoke on behalf of MAPA, declared the 

34th COSALFA meeting closed.

RESOLUTIONS


RESOLUTIONS 

RESOLUTION I 

Fifth International Seminar of Laboratory Specialists in Vesicular Diseases 

THE THIRTY-FITH COSALFA ORDINARY MEETING, 

Considering: 

The importance of following and supporting the development of foot-and-moth disease programs on the basis of 

laboratory results; 

The importance, in case of positive foot-and-mouth disease samples, of completing diagnosis with vaccine 

matching and filogenetic studies, and of concluding the diagnosis in case of negative vesicular suspicions; 

The need to equalize and harmonize laboratory capabilities in the region; 

The importance of validating new methodologies in accordance with internationally accepted criteria and with 

the degree of precision required by the PHEFA situation; and 

The importance of endorsing the recommendations of the Fifth International Seminar of Laboratory Specialists 

in Vesicular Diseases, 

RESOLVES: 

1. To endorse the recommendations of the Fifth International Seminar of Laboratory Specialists in Vesicular 

Diseases; 

2. To have PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO, in conjunction with the vesicular laboratories network reinforce technical 

cooperation in virologic and cytological diagnosis, promoting coordination among institutions and placing particular 

emphasis on the services of Bolivia, Ecuador, and Venezuela; 

3. To give continuity to the meetings of laboratory specialists in vesicular diseases; to promote alliances to 

facilitate technology transfer to national services, private undertakings, public-private initiatives, and academic 

institutions, among other recipients; 

4. To urge PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO again to convene a group of laboratory and epidemiology specialists of 

the national services for deifning aspects related to the attributes of serologic tests applied in the region for different

RESOLUTION II 

Epidemiologic Situation 

The 35th COSALFA ORDINARY MEETING, 

Considering: 

That despite major progress in sanitary improvement achieved by the programs in the countries that have 

reached the last phase of foot-and-mouth disease eradication, sporadic foci are still detected, an indication of the 

persistence of residual viral circulation in the production spaces; 

That to conclude the eradication phase it is essential to identify and characterize the production spaces where 

there is viral circulation, so as to establish sanitary interventions aimed at stopping and eliminating circulation; 

and 

That the characterization of production spaces where there is viral circulation requires instruments for enhancing 

the sensitivity of the surveillance systems and at the same time strengthening the local veterinary attention structures, 

RESOLVES: 

To ask PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO to continue, in conjunction with the countries, to develop instruments for 

identifying zones or geographical spaces with potentially higher risks of vulnerability to and receptivity for circulation 

of the foot-and-mouth disease virus. These instruments should provide support for the definition and application of 

effective epidemiologic surveillance mechanisms and for longitudinal epidemiologic studies that in turn support the 

establishment and maintenance of zones free of foot-and-mouth disease, consistent with the maximum results of 

the eradication programs under PHEFA. 


of March14, 2008) 



RESOLUTION III 

International Pre-COSALFA Seminar: 

South America free of foot-and-mouth disease: new paradigms 


Considering: 

The conclusions of the Pre-COSALFA seminar related to the topic "South America free of foot-and-mouth 

disease: new paradigms," aimed at the achievement of the goals contemplated by the 2005-2009 PHEFA, 

RESOLVES: 

1. To recommend that the countries that do not have tracing records adopt a tracing standard, and that those 

countries that already have such records optimize and maintain them current; 

2. To recommend that the countries ensure the sustainability of sanitary programs through political, economic, 

and social mechanisms; 

3. To recommend that PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO in conjunction with CVP, continue to support the harmonization 

of sanitary initiatives in border areas, including the High Surveillance Zones; 

4. To recommend that the countries undertake tasks aimed at identifying risk zones, with a view to the application 

of specific strategies, while encouraging the participation of producers, and ensuring the commitment of the social 

players involved in the conduction of the programs' initiatives; 

5. Recommend that PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO, in conjunction with the countries, continue to develop the 

methodology to allow the identification of zones or geographical spaces with potentially higher risks of vulnerability 

to and receptivity for circulation of the foot-and-mouth disease virus. This methodology would support the definition 

and application of effective epidemiologic surveillance mechanisms and for longitudinal epidemiologic studies. 

This, in turn, would permit the enhancing the efficiency of the establishment and maintenance of zones free of footand-mouth 

disease, consistently with the optimization of the eradication programs under PHEFA; and 

6. To recommend that PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO encourage the countries to undertake epidemiologic studies, 

defining sources of infection and identifying risks in already identified areas where viral circulation persists, as well 

as to develop new focuses for surveillance systems, with a view to optimizing the eradication programs under the 

PHEFA. 

7. To reiterate to the countries the need to maintain the political will for achieving PHEFA' objectives and to 

recommend that they develop coordinated public-private projects and ensure the private sector's participation in 

the organization and execution of the sanitary activities contemplated under the eradication programs 

8. To recommend that PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO continue to orient the countries' production and diagnosis 

laboratories in regard to Biosafety and bioprotection, optimizing biotechnological equivalences and providing support 

for capacity-building and auditing; 

9. To recommend that the countries stress the importance of the role played by sub-regional institutions in the 

implementation of sanitary programs, and support the eradication processes by firm official institutional commitment, 

with the backing of international organizations; 

10. To recommend that the international technical cooperation agencies coordinate their efforts, directing them 

to zones or countries in need of equipment and infrastructure; 

11. To recommend that vaccine producing laboratories continue to invest in the modernization of products, new 

technologies, and Biosafety, thereby contributing to the achievement of PHEFA's goals; and 

12. To recommend that countries that still do not have prevention plans develop and execute such plans. 


37


It is further recommended that the countries should: 

a) Enhance the capabilities of the laboratories of the South American network and ensure compliance with 

quality standards by the national services that do not do it; 

b) Strengthen primary diagnosis in laboratories that have been identified as having shortcomings; 

c) Institute molecular diagnosis (detection and characterization); in laboratories that have not done so yet; 

d) Obtain a conclusive diagnosis for all suspicions with a negative diagnosis of vesicular disease, for which it is 

essential to collect appropriate samples for differential diagnosis; and 

e) Institute vaccine matching in laboratories that have not done so yet. 

That PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO should: 

a) Secure the technical cooperation necessary for following up on the recommendations listed above; 

b) Find a mechanism for setting up a multidisciplinary, multisectoral group for the following purposes: 

- To define the need, opportunity, and the appropriate characteristics for establishing a Regional Antigen and 

Vaccine Bank, as well as designing technical criteria for defining, on a scientific basis, what is considered 

an 'exotic strain' and which strains should be included in the bank; 

- To establish mechanisms to ensure the provision of inputs and reference materials; 

- To develop complete kits for ELISA SI and ELISA CFL tests and validate them; 

- To review regional criteria for interpreting vaccine matching results and harmonizing them with other 

international reference centers; 

- To define priority lines of research, including collaboration with other centers, universities, etc.; 

- To harmonize the use of monoclonal antibodies and validate their application; and 

- To seek new funding sources to honor the above-mentioned commitments.

RESOLUTION IV 

Guide on Public Relations and Communication of Risk in Animal Health 


Considering: 

The need to enhance the governments' capabilities for, through their official services, producing and disseminating 

useful, precise information about foot-and-mouth disease in an agile, coordinated manner; 

The importance of public relations in supporting technical activities, from planning to execution, and the prevention 

and eradication of foot-and-mouth disease; 

The existence of an Interagency Group on Risk Communication to coordinate technical cooperation in this 

area; 

The existence of a "Guide on Public Relations and Risk Communication in Animal Health" produced under the 

PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO technical cooperation agreement titled "Program of Regional System for the Control of 

Foot-and-Mouth Disease within the Enlarged Mercosur." This guide is a valuable instrument for training, use, and 

reference of the official animal health and public health services in the "Enlarged Mercosur" countries. 

RESOLVES: 

1. That the countries should reaffirm their commitment to the strengthening of the public relations component 

of their animal health programs; 

2. That PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO should promote a technical meeting of cooperation agencies and member 

countries to prepare a regional program for training in public relations and risk communication geared to the official 

veterinary services, using as a tool the "Guide on public relations and animal health risk communication."

RESOLUTION V 

Foot-and-mouth disease eradication programs in South America 


Considering: 

That the foot-and-mouth disease eradication programs in the countries of the Andean Community and in 

Venezuela have achieved significant progress and that nevertheless none of these countries seems to have reached 

the development level capable of ensuring the attainment of the PHEFA objectives within the envisaged deadlines, 

thereby jeopardizing the achievements obtained in some areas of the region; 

That the international cooperation organizations that have technical tools to support the implementation of 

measures conducive to the disease's eradication are present in the region, where they are recognized for their 

work; 

That the countries have the possibility of counting on national resources but additional resources are necessary 

to complement budgetary appropriations for their foot-and-mouth disease eradication programs; 

That COTASA, within the CAN context, and CVP, within the Mercosur context, are entities that support the 

harmonization and coordination of sanitary policies implemented in the countries, and play a major role in advancing 

the disease's eradication by means of subregional initiatives along international borders; 

That the coordinated participation of the countries' public and private sector is essential to eradicate diseases; and 

That reports have been received from Bolivia's public and private sectors expressing concern over the lack of 

coordination, joint work, and consistent strengthening of the veterinary attention system, which may cause a 

retrocession in the progress achieved by Bolivia, 

RESOLVES: 

1. To urge the countries to maintain a strong veterinary service endowed with technical independence for 

ensuring the implementation of their control and eradication programs; 

2. To recommend that international organizations should maintain close coordination with sub-regional 

institutions for advancing eradication programs; 

3. To recommend that the countries should undertake coordinated actions in their border zones in parallel with 

the reinforcement of control and eradication activities in the rest of their territories, so as to advance the disease's 

control and eradication; 

4. To urge the countries to pursue the subregional coordination of the need for the international organizations' 

cooperation to strengthen their veterinary attention system; 

5. To urge the official veterinary services to maintain close coordination with the private sector; 

6. To urge Bolivia's public and private sectors to implement the joint actions contemplated in the country's 

legislation and in international guidelines, so as to strengthen the veterinary attention system. The countries of the 

region and the cooperation agencies are also requested to provide the requisite support for preserving the gains 

obtained and achieving PHEFA's objectives; and 

7. To recommend that PANAFTOSA/PAHO-WHO should reinforce the cooperation initiatives needed to resolve 

or overcome the difficulties faced by some countries of the region in their foot-and-mouth disease eradication 

programs.
