A shoot of tuberculosis begins to do estragos in the province of Castile and Leon

? The number of positive by tuberculosis in the bovine cabin in diet extensivo, especially in the central and oriental mountain, of Castile and Leon. Like this they have recognised/recognized it the veterinary services of the Board of the province, once effected a series of saneamientos in this zone, appreciating a greater virulence of the illness, concerning previous years.

Another reason of criticism is the cost of the campaigns of saneamiento for the public accounts and more if they put in practice like only mechanism against these shoots. Besides, the percentage of herd saneado this year is lower to the of the previous, because of the cuts in the public sector, and with this, also less prevention of the illness.

And is that the increase of cases could arrive to duplicate the contabilizados during the last campaigns, as they warn from the Union of Graziers and Agriculturalists de León (Ugal). In fact, the organisation/organization quantifies in near of half hundred the number of exploitations affected.

The tuberculosis attacks, especially, to the livestock that shares the pastures with wild fauna. Between the main transmitters of this illness appear deers, roebucks and jabalíes, as it collects the program of eradication of the tuberculosis, dependent of the Ministry of Rural Environment and Marino (MARM). In this regard, the graziers already have demanded previously a greater administrative control on these wild species, very protected from the legal point of view. By part of the agricultural organisations/organizations asks the set up of determinate measures that include censuses and sanitary surveillance of this fauna for like this control possible contagions.
