Minimum vector to host ratio (MVH) needed for persistence when RVF is introduced to a fully susceptible or naïve buffalo herd. No persistence occurs below 4% vertical transmission. It seems that either high vertical transmission rates or reintroduction of RVF from an outside source is necessary for persistence in a naïve herd.
