<p>Individual animal results are shown as tiles, blue for negative and red for positive. Multiple animals in a herd for a given age group are overlaid showing as a darker tile in blue or red. Purple tiles represent combinations of positive and negative animals in the same herd and age class. The circles show the model based estimates of time since a PI was last present in each herd. The filled circles would be classified as having a PI present using the rule of 3 or more test positive animals (SPOT test positive).</p
