Serological results from a repeated cross-sectional study of small ruminants carried out in Tanzania. There were no positive male animals or age groups <1 and 1–2 years in samples from 2014, so it was not possible to obtain OR for the risk factor ‘age group’ or ‘sex’. Multivariate analysis was not possible due to an insufficient number of seropositive animals. p-Values <.05 were considered significant and are in bold text.
