The inspection has already covered more than ten thousand personal homes. 6.8 thousand animals that were not registered with the veterinary service were identified. Including about two thousand cows and bulls, approximately five thousand heads of small livestock, dozens of pigs and horses.
– This means that during the events that took place before the appearance of two anthrax outbreaks, the cattle were hidden. I don’t understand people’s attitude towards this. Vaccination is free, says Vice President of the Government of the Voronezh region, Viktor Logvinov.
By governor’s decree, unscheduled farm tours will continue through early October. Unvaccinated cattle are subject to vaccination. Logvinov called on all meat and milk producers, including farmers, to vaccinate all of his livestock.
Constant monitoring of organizations selling meat, semi-finished products and products made from it will be established in the region. At the entrance to the Voronezh region, mobile traffic police posts will be organized to control the movement of farm animals and livestock products.
Veterinarians and specialists of Rosselkhoznadzor took necessary measures in case of anthrax outbreaks. Quarantine has been introduced in villages in four districts.
