Bovine nodular rash is raging all over the world. at present, cases have been reported in 40 countries in Europe, Asia and Africa. China first reported a case of bovine nodular rash on July 10. Jinmen Animal testing Institute conducted a pasture visit and cattle culling last weekend. Up to 12, 199 cattle farms have been inspected, 82 cattle have been culled, and incineration has been carried out after culling. at present, there are 394 cattle to be visited and 140 suspected diseased cattle to be culled.

The Council of Agriculture held an inter-ministerial meeting today (13). The specific measures included the disinfection of vehicles, the use of drugs in livestock farms, and ordered 10,000 doses of vaccines from abroad. It is expected that cattle in Kinmen will be beaten, hoping to control the epidemic in Kinmen Island and not spread to the island. Huang Jincheng, vice chairman of the Council of Agriculture, said that the virus is mainly transmitted by mosquitoes and flies, and the maximum flight distance of mosquitoes and flies in a single day is 30 kilometers. Kinmen is more than 100 kilometers away from Taiwan's main island, and vehicles are thoroughly disinfected, so there is little chance of spreading to the island.

The international epidemic of bovine nodular rash (provided by Picture / Council of Agriculture) has culled 82 heads, 140 heads to be culled, and immediately culled as soon as the nodules appear.

Chen Jizhong, convener of the emergency response team for bovine nodular rash disaster and chairman of the Committee of Agriculture, explained that there are 594 cattle farms (including animal testing centers) in Jinmen county, of which 23 sick cattle were diagnosed last week and 51 in the same building. A total of 74 cattle have been culled and incinerated; in addition to animal testing centers, 199 private cattle farms have been visited, and a total of 148 cattle in 30 suspected cases have symptoms, of which 8 suspected diseased cattle have been culled. At present, there are 394 cattle farms to be visited and 140 suspected diseased cattle to be culled.

Chen Jizhong said that there are still 474 animals waiting to be culled in the animal testing center, and there are 10 suspected cases within 3 kilometers around the animal testing center and 20 suspected cases 3 kilometers away, including Jinning Township, Jinsha Town, Jincheng Town and Jinhu Town, with a total of 30 cases. there are 1097 heads in the breeding center, of which 148 have symptoms, and will be culled immediately when symptoms appear.

Why not wait for a diagnosis, but have symptoms and cull immediately? The Golden City specifically states that the symptoms of cattle infected with bovine nodular rash are nodules in the epidermis, which is quite special. At present, there are no similar symptoms of other viruses, but there will be a time gap in the process from symptoms to sampling and diagnosis, and it will be too late for the virus to continue to spread and wait for diagnosis to be culled again.
