Tuberculosis testing in Caroline cattle herds shows few infections
Thirteen herds totaling 156 cattle were tested by the State veterinarian last week in Caroline County. Only four animals were found diseased. Observations suggest tubercular cattle are rare in native herds and infections trace to animals from unknown sources. Five state accredited herds exist locally, with hopes to expand accreditation. If state goals pass, the three year cleanup would protect public health, since milkborne tuberculosis affects over half of human cases.
