At present the territory of Estonia is free from infectious diseases belonging to the A-list confirmed by OIE. Two outbreaks of FMD were diagnosed in 1952 and 1982, hog cholera in 1958 and 1994, the Newcastle disease in 1962. The bovine tuberculosis in Estonia was liquidated in the end of fifteenth, but the disease in one herd was diagnosed in 1986. In 1996 the avian tuberculosis in one small country flock in 1961, but the disease in pigs was diagnosed in 1988. The Bovine Enzootic Leukosis was eradicated in the beginning of nineteenth. The spread of five viruses (IBR/IPV, BVDV, Respiratory Syncycial Virus, Adenovirus and Rotavirus) in the Estonian cattle herds and Parvovirus in the swineherds were established. The BVDV had affected 84,3 per cent of large and 40,9 per cent of small herds, the IBRV infection in 43,4 per cent of cattle was established. With Parvovirus the 93 per cent of investigated herds were affected. The Lyssavirus is circulating in the population of wild carnivores in Estonia, but every year the disease also in domestic animals is diagnosed. For prophylactics of animal infectious diseases in Estonia, state control programmes and considering the territorial epizootic situation the vaccination programs are used
