Great White Plague in Castle Affects Cattle
Mr Skinner opened the afternoon session with a talk on the Great White Plague in Castle, better known as consumption. He warned TB is highly dangerous to cattle and can spread via water, food, or air and may exist without detectable signs. He endorsed tuberculin testing as reliable and urged testing every bought cow and culling infected animals. He cited Indiana data: about 8 percent of 4400 tested animals showed traces of disease, stressing TB transmission from cows to humans.
