Testing Halted Over Bovine TB In Black Hawk County
The Bovine TB test program in Black Hawk County stopped after April 7 when an injunction limited testing. Judge Boies blocked quarantining and testing duties, raising questions about indemnities for reactors and whether voluntary testing remains legal. Dr. G C Stong reported about 3000 cattle tested in April before the stoppage, with uncertainty about when testing can resume.
