Foot-and-Mouth: A History

NPR's Joanne Silberner reports on a 1946 outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in Mexico. Families traveled south from the U.S. to help stop the epidemic. Now in their 70's and 80's, they still get together each year to remember the work that took them to some of the most remote places in Mexico.
