29 The government, however, dismisses Woolhouse's figures as an overestimate. It also argues that it could not have acted any faster than it did. "A national ban was imposed as soon as it became clear that there was a national problem," a spokesman for the Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs told New Scientist. But he did add that such a ban would be imposed immediately if any future outbreak occurred. New Scientist vol. 176 issue 2372 (07 December 2002)

30 What the foot and mouth virus looks like (not actual size)

32 Wildtype virus Mutant virus Assume: Simple exponential population growth Simple Poisson mutation process (no back mutation) Mutants are either tolerated and equally fit as wildtype or not tolerated at all WITHIN HOST POPULATION DYNAMICS Haydon, D.T., Samuel, A.R., and Knowles, N.J.

35 observed rates of change in the field are 0.5 - 1.5 % yr -1 corresponding to 10 - 30 nucleotide changes in capsids genes yr -1 plausible that the bulk of virus excreted by infected animals differs by at least one point mutation to capsid genes from that which ‘went in’ therefore sequential chains of infection of 10 - 30 animals yr -1 could give rise to observed rates of change

36 Uncertainty surrounds many of the critical parameters governing the generation of genetic variation during a single infection In particular: the mutation rate the number of viral generations the viability of variants However, if variation is generated at the rate anticipated, then transmission networks may be traced at a much finer resolution than practiced to date
