| \\ **Risk of consequences**: The extent of (biologic and/or economic) consequences of the occurrence of a given hazard (Hoinville, 2012).\\ \\ **Risk of detection**: Probability of being detected by the surveillance activity.\\ \\ **Risk of infection**: Probability of becoming infected if hazard is currently present in the population.\\ \\ **Risk of introduction**: Probability of being infected if hazard is not currently present in the population.\\ \\ **Sample**: A subset of the target population is examined.\\ \\ **Secondary (aberrant) host**: A species that additionally is involved in the life-cycle of an agent, especially outside typical endemic areas (e.g. cattle infected with strains of foot-and-mouth virus that usually cycles in buffaloes). A secondary host sometimes can act as a maintenance host. (Thrusfield, 2005)\\ \\ **Study population**: The subset of the target population from which the sample is selected.\\ \\ **Study sample**: The study sample is a subset of the sampling frame.\\ \\ **Surveillance component**: Specific surveillance activity conducted as part of a surveillance system.\\ \\ **Surveillance system**: The systematic, continuous or repeated, measurement, collection, collation, analysis, interpretation and timely dissemination of animal health and welfare related data from defined populations. These data are then used to describe health hazard occurrence and to contribute to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of risk mitigation actions (Hoinville, 2012). A system consists of at least one component. A surveillance system can focus on a hazard, e.g. surveillance of BSE, or can be broader, e.g. emerging disease surveillance system.\\ \\ **Susceptibility** of a host depends on genetic or constitutional factors, specific immunity, and nonspecific factors that affect an individual’s ability to resist infection or to limit pathogenicity. Severity of the disease resulting from such infections and the ability to maintain and transmit infection may, however, vary between the species concerned (see Hosts).\\ \\ **Target population**: The larger population to which the study results will be generalised.\\ \\ **Vector**: An animate transmitter of infectious agents. By common usage, vectors are defined as invertebrate animals, usually arthropods, that transmit infectious agents to vertebrates.\\ \\ \\ | \\ **Risk of consequences**: The extent of (biologic and/or economic) consequences of the occurrence of a given hazard (Hoinville, 2012).\\ \\ **Risk of detection**: Probability of being detected by the surveillance activity.\\ \\ **Risk of infection**: Probability of becoming infected if hazard is currently present in the population.\\ \\ **Risk of introduction**: Probability of being infected if hazard is not currently present in the population.\\ \\ **Sample**: A subset of the target population is examined.\\ \\ **Secondary (aberrant) host**: A species that additionally is involved in the life-cycle of an agent, especially outside typical endemic areas (e.g. cattle infected with strains of foot-and-mouth virus that usually cycles in buffaloes).
