I agree with Dr. Chang that in the case of USA and Canada (Duprey et 
al, 2006), in the absence of transmission of CVL by sand flies, all the 
emphasis was given to transmission dog to dog by biting, reusing needles 
for injections, blood transfusion and breeding. Never raise the 
possibility of oral transmission by sharing food.

However, I also agree with Carlos that the study of oral transmission, 
if important, can serve as a model for the assessment of the importance 
of dog asymptomatic and effectiveness of vaccines in the transmission of 
CVL.
