Estimates of bovine TB infection prevalence for badgers in Northern Ireland using a Bayesian model applied to data from 3 diagnostic tests, using independent parameters for the prevalence each year (bars, with vertical lines giving the 95% credible interval of each annual prevalence estimate) and fitting an exponentially declining trend for the prevalence each year (blue line).
