Which vesicular disease has been eradicated worldwide?

Explanation:
Vesicular exanthema of swine has been eradicated worldwide. This disease is caused by a calicivirus and produces vesicles on the mouth, snout, and feet in pigs, clinically resembling other vesicular diseases. In the mid-20th century, outbreaks were traced to contaminated swine products, and through stringent quarantine, removal of the suspected feed, and broad surveillance, the disease was declared eradicated and is no longer reported globally. By contrast, the other vesicular diseases remain in circulation in various regions, so they have not achieved worldwide eradication.
