Basically it means that if you trip and fall, you can just stand up and go on as normal. But if your tongue slips (you say something you shouldn't have) it may be impossible for people to treat you the same way as they did before you said it.

Can cows recover from foot and mouth disease?

Yes, and most cows will recover from foot and mouth disease (FMD). This disease is mostly economic in its impact - in an endemically infected herd (one that routinely has FMD circulating), generally around 98% of the animals who get infected will recover in a couple of weeks. In a naive herd (one that has not been exposed to FMD), you will see a slightly larger mortality rate, but still have a survival rate over 90%.
