  1. Times (and standard deviations) are given for control schemes 1, 2 and 3. The number in brackets for control scheme 3 refers to the proportion of farms, n, to which the movement restrictions are applied. Values are given for restrictions on the movements of both PIs and PIs in utero as well as restrictions on the movement of PIs alone. All times are given in years.
