Kill List • The Next Reel

“How many on the list?”A Slow-Burn Descent into DarknessBen Wheatley's second feature film, Kill List, was released in 2011 to critical acclaim. The film follows Jay, a former soldier turned hitman, as he takes on a new job with his friend Gal after a traumatic event in Kiev leaves him unable to work for eight months. As Jay and Gal begin their new assignment, they quickly realize that there is more to their targets than meets the eye, and they find themselves embroiled in a dark and twisted conspiracy.Unraveling the Mysteries of Kill ListIn this episode of The Next Reel, we dive deep into the many layers of Kill List. We discuss how the film slowly reveals information about Jay's past and his work as a hitman, keeping the audience guessing until the very end. We also explore the film's shift from what's been described as a kitchen sink drama to a hitman story and finally to a cult conspiracy, and how Wheatley ties all of these elements together in a satisfying way – at least for us.Throughout our discussion, we highlight the incredible performance of Neil Maskell as Jay, a man struggling with trauma and rage. We also touch on the film's exploration of masculinity and the ways in which Jay's inability to express his emotions leads to violence and destruction.Other Points of DiscussionThe film's references to Arthurian legend and how they relate to Jay's characterThe twist ending and its impact on the storyThe relationship between Jay and his wife Shel, played by MyAnna BuringThe relationship between Jay and Gal, his best friend and co-worker, played by Michael SmileyThe film's use of violence and how it serves the storyKill List is a film that feels like one that will reward us on multiple viewings, as each watch hopefully will reveal new clues and connections that we may have been missed the first time around. While the ending may be polarizing for some viewers, we found it to be a satisfying conclusion to a story that keeps you guessing until the very last frame.A Must-See for Fans of Slow-Burn ThrillersOverall, we thoroughly enjoyed Kill List and its slow-burn approach to storytelling. Ben Wheatley and his wife/co-writer Amy Jump craft a tense and unsettling atmosphere that keeps you on the edge of your seat, and the performances from the entire cast are top-notch. If you're a fan of films that take their time to unravel their mysteries and leave you with plenty to think about after the credits roll, then Kill List is definitely worth checking out.

M. Grant - FASTer vaccination – assessing level of preparedness

IntroductionScoping work was carried out to gather information on the state of preparedness for emergency vaccination for FAST diseases in EuFMD Member Nations (MN); and on the issues that constrain them from inclusion of vaccination in their plans. Different aspects of emergency vaccination were investigated including vaccination strategies, access to vaccines and operational preparedness. The scope of the work was category 1 FAST diseases which is Foot- and- Mouth Disease (FMD), Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD), Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR) and Sheep and Goat Pox (SGP).Materials and methodsAn online questionnaire was sent out to 39 EuFMD member nations plus three additional European countries. The online tool SurveyMonkey® was used and the data was analysed using R. The questionnaire was aimed at risk managers/ contingency planners. ResultsThe response rate was 15 out of 42 countries. Some examples of preliminary key findings were that the level of planning for emergency vaccination is higher for FMD than PPR and SGP, many of the responding countries rely on the EU bank with no other arrangements to source vaccines, not all countries have a system to perform a rapid evaluation and approval of vaccines for emergency use, a relative high number of member nations would choose a vaccinate-to-cull strategy over a vaccinate-to-live strategy for FMD and over 50% of countries have an exit plan for FMD but only one country has stated they have an exit plan for PPR or SGP. DiscussionThe questionnaire result will be followed up by semi-structured group interviews with EuFMD MNs risk managers/ contingency planners to validate the results and to capture more detailed information on the gaps and needs in MNs.B Sanz-Bernardo1 & M Grant2 1 The Pirbright Institute 2The European Commission for the Control of Foot-and-Mouth Disease (EuFMD)

Play Episode Listen Later Dec 14, 2020 3:24

IntroductionIntranasal administration of Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) vaccine as a potentially effective means for mass vaccination has been experimentally demonstrated to induce strong mucosal and systemic immune responses in goats. However, little is known about the influence of intranasal PPR vaccination application methods on the induction of immune response in goats. This study compares the influence of two different intranasal vaccine application methods on the immune responses in goats. Materials and methodsTwenty, male, PPR immunologically naive West African dwarf goats were divided into four groups (n=5). Groups A and B were vaccinated intranasally (IN) with live attenuated PPR vaccine (Nigeria 75/1) by either nasal dropper (Group A) or nasal spray (Group B) methods and compared with the subcutaneous route vaccination (Group C) and unvaccinated control (Group D) for 28 days. ResultsPPR blocking ELISA based on the H-antigen demonstrated high-titres of PPRV-specific antibodies in all vaccinated animals regardless of vaccination route with peak mean percentage inhibitions of 79.3% (day 14); 69.8% (day 21) and 86.6% (day 21) for IN-Drop; IN-Spray and Subcutaneous vaccination groups, respectively. Pulmonary histomorphological assessment showed the development of bronchus-associated lymphoid tissues (BALT) in IN-Spray Group only. PPR Immunohistochemistry showed PPR viral antigens in the lymphoid cells of the germinal centers of the BALT. PPRV antigen was also detected in the spleen and mediastinal lymph nodes of all vaccinated animals after 28 days post-vaccination. DiscussionThe findings of this study shows that the choice of application methods for intranasal PPR vaccine delivery is essential in the induction of immune response and suggests that the IN-Spray method may hold greater potential for earlier induction of systemic immune response as well as pulmonary protection against the pneumonic form of the disease.

T. Marschik - The epidemiological and economic impact of a potential outbreak

THE EPIDEMIOLOGICAL AND ECONOMIC IMPACT OF A POTENTIAL OUTBREAK OF FOOT-AND-MOUTH DISEASE IN AUSTRIAIntroductionAn outbreak of foot-and mouth disease (FMD) in an FMD-free country with substantial export volume of livestock and livestock products, such as Austria, would likely have serious consequences on national economy. This could be mitigated by a rapid intervention to control disease spread. The objectives of this study were to assess the epidemiological and economic impact of FMD outbreaks in Austria by simulation studies, to evaluate the effect of various control strategies and to assess the resources that would be required to respond to an FMD outbreak in Austria.Materials and methodsThe multi-country FMD outbreak simulation model EuFMDiS was used to simulate a potential FMD outbreak in Austrian regions with both low and high livestock densities. The consequences on the Austrian economy were evaluated by a model, which combines the economic results from EuFMDiS with our own calculation of costs. Direct costs linked to the implementation of several control strategies under consideration, as well as the indirect costs caused by production losses and international trade restrictions were estimated. A sensitivity analysis was performed on potential influential input parameters. ResultsThe results showed that there is a significant influence of the livestock density of the affected region on the dynamics of the outbreak and its economic impact. Comparison of different control strategies suggested that, from an economic point of view, implementation of additional control measures would be efficient if the epidemic started in an area with high livestock density. Analysis of the simulations demonstrated that success of control measures depends substantially on the adequate availability of resources and the speed of intervention. The vast majority of financial losses associated with an FMD outbreak could be attributed to export losses. Surveillance cost accounted for the largest share of the costs linked to the control strategies. DiscussionThe current study indicates that control of an FMD outbreak may be improved by implementation of a contingency strategy adapted to the affected region and by consideration of a range of factors evaluated in this work.

While direct costs of outbreaks of transboundary animal diseases are often well understood, little information is available about indirect and/or consequential costs of control measures. In this study, a spreadsheet model was developed to estimate the indirect consequential costs of ASF in domestic pigs and wild boars, considering different outbreak scenarios in Switzerland.Materials and methodsFirst, qualitative interviews were conducted with international stakeholders to identify the sectors that may be indirectly affected by an ASF outbreak and how this impact can be characterized. Various outbreak scenarios in domestic pigs and wild boar were defined, and Swiss stakeholders were interviewed to gather data on the economic impacts in these scenarios. Finally, a cost-calculator model was used to estimate the indirect costs of an ASF outbreak in Switzerland and a decision-tree model was used to analyse various scenarios given incursion probabilities.ResultsInterviews with international stakeholders demonstrated that actors beyond the pig value chain were also indirectly affected by ASF, including, for example, the timber industry, agricultural insurance companies and feed crop producers. Important drivers for indirect costs in Switzerland were consumer demand, slaughter restrictions and biosecurity requirements.DiscussionThe findings demonstrate that the impact of an ASF outbreak will be felt well beyond the pig farms directly affected. Changes in consumer demand will impact the entire pig value chain. Furthermore, certain measures, including biosecurity measures (e.g. compulsory indoor housing) or transport restrictions for healthy pigs may lead to significant indirect consequential costs throughout the value chain. It is crucial for all stakeholders to be informed about the emergency measures that will be taken in an outbreak and their consequences to enable them to prepare for and mitigate their impacts.

CROSS-VALIDATION OF GENERIC RISK ASSESSMENT TOOLS: AN ASF CASE STUDYIntroductionRisk assessments are often developed to assess the risk for a single disease and introduction pathway. However in recent years, generic risk tools have been developed that can assess the risk of incursion for multiple pathogens via multiple pathways. A collaborative project provided an opportunity for cross validation of several generic risk tools; each assessing an identical incursion scenario using, where possible, the same input data. Materials & MethodsSeven generic RA tools were used to assess the incursion risk of African swine fever (ASF) virus to the Netherlands and Finland for the epidemiological situation in 2017 and for two hypothetical scenarios in which ASF cases were reported in wild boar and/or domestic pigs in Germany. The generic tools ranged from qualitative risk assessment tools to stochastic spatial risk models but were all parameterised using the same global databases for disease occurrence and trade in live animals and animal products. The risks for each country and scenario were calculated for each tool, for the three pathways most in common (trade in live animals, trade in animal products, and wild boar movements); relative risks were computed, and then compared across tools.ResultsFor the 2017 situation, all tools evaluated the risk to the Netherlands to be higher than Finland for the live animal trade pathway, the risk to Finland the same or higher as the Netherlands for the wild boar pathway, while the tools were inconclusive on the animal products pathway. All tools agreed that the hypothetical presence of ASF in Germany increased the risk to the Netherlands, but not to Finland.DiscussionThe case study illustrated that conclusions on the risk of ASF virus incursion were similar across the generic RA tools, despite differences observed in calculated risks. It was concluded that the cross-validation contributed to the credibility of the results.Research funded by an EFSA Partnering Grant (GP/EFSA/AFSCO/2017/01) and the CoVetLab consortium (CoVetLab 2017-5)Emma L.
