4 STRUCTURE OF THE QUESTIONNAIRE Questionnaire on PPR risk factors and control n Drivers for introduction, spread, persistence n Prevention and control measures n Measures in place, supplementary measures n Difficulties faced in the implementation n Recommendations n Vaccine & vaccination 4

5 STRUCTURE OF THE QUESTIONNAIRE Questionnaire on PPR risk factors and control Uncontrolled movements of livestock n Areas at risk n Drivers n Recommended control measures 5
