RP was the first animal disease to be globally eradicated in 2011 and is only the second disease, after smallpox, to have ever been eradicated. PPR is one of the principal constraints to small ruminant production in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. The epidemiology of PPR and RP as well as the technologies available for their diagnosis and control are similar. The conditions that favored the eradication of RP are also largely present for PPR. In this work, we outline the evolving strategy for eradication in light of current opportunities and challenges, as well as the lessons from other eradication programs in animal and human health. The global PPR situation and technology for its control are summarized. A strategy based on the lessons from previous eradication efforts that integrate epidemiology, social science, and economics as tools to target and motivate vaccination is summarized. Major aspects of the cost and benefit-cost analysis of the indicated program are presented. The overall undiscounted cost of eradication was estimated as $3.1 billion, and the benefit-cost ratio for the most likely scenario was estimated at 33.8. We close with a discussion of the possible next steps.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4049\/jimmunol.1502625","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,18]],"date-time":"2016-04-18T20:32:58Z","timestamp":1461011578000},"page":"3499-3506","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":51,"title":["The Opportunity To Eradicate Peste des Petits Ruminants"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"196","author":[{"given":"Jeffrey C","family":"Mariner","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Infectious Disease and Global Health, Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine, Tufts University , North Grafton, MA 01535"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bryony A","family":"Jones","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Royal Veterinary College, University of London , Hatfield AL9 7TA ,","place":["United Kingdom"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Karl M","family":"Rich","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lab 863 Ltd. , Pinner HA5 2EX ,","place":["United Kingdom"]},{"name":"Lincoln University , Lincoln 7647 ,","place":["New Zealand"]},{"name":"Norwegian Institute of International Affairs , 0033 Oslo ,","place":["Norway"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Samuel","family":"Thevasagayam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation , Seattle, WA 98109"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9592-6137","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"John","family":"Anderson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"The Nelson Mandela African Institute of Science and Technology , Arusha ,","place":["Tanzania"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Martyn","family":"Jeggo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Geelong Centre for Emerging Infectious Disease, Medical Faculty, Deakin University , Waurn Ponds, Victoria 3216 ,","place":["Australia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yi","family":"Cai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation , Seattle, WA 98109"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6273-2862","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andrew R","family":"Peters","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Scotland\u2019s Rural College , Edinburgh EH9 3JG ,","place":["United Kingdom"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2981-6113","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Peter L","family":"Roeder","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Taurus Animal Health , Hampshire GU35 8SY ,","place":["United Kingdom"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,5,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025030702163099700_r1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2885","DOI":"10.1099\/vir.0.025841-0","article-title":"Global distribution of peste des petits ruminants virus and prospects for improved diagnosis and control","volume":"91","author":"Banyard","year":"2010","journal-title":"J.
