Quantification of different classical swine fever virus transmission routes within a single compartment

• We quantified CSFV transmission within- and between pens and via air. • CSFV transmission within a pen was highest (β of 6.1). • CSFV transmission via the air and between adjacent pens was comparable (β of 0.3). • The route via the air created new focal points of infection. • Transmission via the...

• We quantified CSFV transmission within- and between pens and via air. • CSFV transmission within a pen was highest (β of 6.1). • CSFV transmission via the air and between adjacent pens was comparable (β of 0.3). • The route via the air created new focal points of infection. • Transmission via the air plays a relevant role in the fast spread of the virus.
