The cards which are available online in English (htp://www.oie.int/eng/maladies/en_technical_diseasecards.htm) will also be translated into French and Spanish. They are mainly directed to a specialised scientific audience and as such represent OIE’s constant effort for scientific excellence. In the coming months the OIE intends to publish an illustrated “Atlas of Transboundary Animal Diseases” which will be based on the work already finalised and will be completed with a major addition of technical disease specific pictures.
In an attempt to make the information contained in some of the cards easily understandable also for a broader audience the OIE has furthermore published disease information on selected animal diseases, including zoonoses in a “questions and answers” format, available online in three languages at http://www.oie.int/eng/ressources/en_diseasecards.htm.
