  • Title: Spatial association and clinical development of equine influenza in horses yarded overnight at an equestrian event at Maitland prior to propagating the 2007 epidemic in Australia.
    Author: Britton AL, Major DA, Perry GH, Read AJ.
    Journal: Aust Vet J; 2011 Jul; 89 Suppl 1():68-9. PubMed ID: 21711293.
    Abstract:
    The interaction and stabling of horses at equine events may have a substantial impact on the spread of a zoonotic disease. This study aimed to investigate the spread of equine influenza (EI) at an equestrian event at the start of the Australian outbreak. Around one-third of the competing horses were stabled overnight at the event and, of these, 70% developed symptoms of EI within 7 days. The index case was never positively identified, but stabling position and disease onset provided clues to its potential identity.
