An Analysis of the Indirect Costs of Animal Health over Time
Author(s): Ava Corbyn*
The direct costs of animal sickness, such as animal mortality, morbidity, and associated response costs, are traditionally the subject of Cost Benefit Assessments (CBAs). However, these methods frequently fall short of capturing the potential impacts on a larger, more dynamic market. These market disruptions may continue for quite some time after the first disease epidemic. More generally, present methods also confound indirect cost criteria, clouding discussions of the magnitude of disease-related economic repercussions. An econometric technique called time series analysis examines the statistical correlations between data series across time, providing information about how market dynamics might alter in the wake of a disease outbreak. An epidemiological model first predicted FMD disease trends based on potential prevention measures. In order to calculate the indirect costs of differ.. View More»
