International experts on Foot-and-Mouth disease (FMD) have agreed on a plan to control the infection in Western Eurasia and stop it spreading west to Europe and North Africa, following a serious epidemic in several Middle Eastern countries.

It is a far-reaching strategy designed to put an end to the devastating disease in 14 West Asian and Middle East countries most directly affected.
