The appearance of the first in 37 years of fluenza in Germany has caused a large distress not only behind the Oder, but also in the whole European Union. The consequences of this fact may be serious, and the economic losses mighty. The biggest emotion was spurred by yesterday’s donation to German media on the suspicion of another FMD focus in Brandenburg. As informed portal Agrarheute, it involved four goats from a farm located in around the city Werneuchen in Barnim County. The alleged focus was to be located about 12 kilometers from the previous stada of which had been confirmed to be flu and about.
For happily today the morning German Institute im. Friedrich Loeffler resolved the doubts:
– In a suspected case of cosis from district Barnim study at the National Laboratory Referential Disease Disease ( FMD ) Institute Friedrich Loeffler ( FLI ) didn’t demonstrate any features of virus or specific antibodies. Samples were examined over night and early morning it was confirmed, that analysis had negative results. Despite this good knowledge inspections of
farms in the surveillance zone are still important, in order to take quick action in the case of
another infected animal.
