He sees no current need for Indiana to impose a quarantine on Michigan cattle or other infected states, though readiness exists if the disease spreads west. The illness is highly contagious but not often fatal, yet one attack can render a cow useless and a second or third can lead to emaciation and drying of glands. most animals die or are killed after initial symptoms, as outbreaks rise on several farms near Detroit.
