The problem with vaccination is that, once you vaccinate an animal for foot and mouth disease, you can't tell the difference between it and a sick animal. Which means you have to vaccinate the whole animal population for quite a while. And other countries would then refuse to import those animals, because they can't tell the difference either.
Which is why they're trying to avoid vaccinations. It would decimate the livelyhood of farmers even more.
