| What is endemic stability? How is it relevant to theileriosis? | Endemic stability is reached when most or all domestic stock and most/all vectors are infected, but immunity has developed in the surviving adult animals and they pass on this immunity to their offspring. It is particularly relevant to diseases where prevalence is very high and economic effects considerable in developing countries, such as theileriosis.
