Significant Disease Risk Assessment 



A disease risk assessment will be made for each meta- (networked) or isolate population using a 

 ranking of 1 to 4 to indicate low to progressively higher levels of risk associated with significant 

 diseases. Population isolation and security are important considerations but cannot be viewed as 

 absolutes. The diseases of concern are those that cause severe and significant impacts to 

 population health and include but are not limited to whirling disease, furunculosis, infectious 

 pancreatic necrosis virus. Take into consideration those actions and activities (Tables 13 and 14) 

 that may have an influence on genetic risk.
