About This Quiz

Panleukopenia and parvovirus are life threatening viral infections, especially in a densely housed shelter environment. Dr. Elizabeth Berliner, Director of Clinical Programs for Maddie’s Shelter Medicine Program at Cornell University, discusses relevant updates, a description of diagnostic tests available and recommendations regarding management of such diseases in the shelter environment... see moreat the 2012 ASPCA/Maddie’s Shelter Medicine Conference. see less

2. What's your name?

We’ll put your name on your report, certificate, and leaderboard.

2. Being prepared for a disease outbreak means having preexisting protocols.

True

False

3. Both Canine Parvovirus and Feline Panleukopenia Virus vaccines are not very effective at preventing disease.

True

False

4. Proactive, preventive disease measures in your community could be provided through:

Zip code/GIS mapping to determine where parvovirus and panleukopenia are coming from.

Vaccination clinics.

Subsidized preventive care.

Disease education.

All of the above.

5. Prevention and control measures for dealing with disease include:

Segregate and adopt those animals not exposed or who are immune.

Isolate clinically ill animals.

Quarantine and monitor potentially exposed animals.

Move to adoption clinically recovered animals.

All of the above.

6. Studies of Protective Antibody Titers (PAT) show that:

57% of dogs entering a Florida municipal shelter had PAT against Canine Parvovirus.

41% of cats entering three Florida shelters had PAT against Feline Panleukopenia Virus.

Animals entering shelters have about the same level of PAT as owned pets entering veterinary hospitals.

Cats are more protected against Feline Panleukopenia Virus than dogs against Canine Parvovirus.

Both A and B

7. Protective Antibody Testing enhances risk assessment.

True

False

8. The definition of a disease outbreak is:

Disease incidence less than what is usually present.

Disease incidence in excess of what is usually present.

Disease incidence at the normal level of what is usually present.

Disease incidence is nonexistent compared to what is usually present.

Disease incidence that causes people to start break dancing spontaneously.

9. Challenges in diagnosis and testing for Canine Parvovirus and Feline Panleukopenia include:

10. Individual animals who are at a high/intermediate risk of disease are those who are:

Clinically affected with a disease.

Potentially exposed to a disease.

Clinically recovered from a disease.

All of the above.

None of the above.

11. When an animal is positive for a Protective Antibody Titer:

Bathe and move along to adoption.

Confirm vaccination/vaccinate/re-vaccinate.

Quarantine for 7–14 days.

Monitoring daily for clinical signs.

B, C and D.
