Are there figures available for the overall radial impact of proactive culling on confirmed herd incidences, and the associate errors, for the latest data (up to the 25th of February 2011), as previously reported in you and your colleagues' papers - i.e. the relative changes in concentric bands around the centre of culling areas.

Many thanks
