Monday July 05 2010
EU veterinary experts have decided to upgrade the health status of several member states in regard to a porcine viral disease, after detecting significant progress in efforts to eradicate it.
Last week's meeting of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health (SCOFCAH) agreed to declare Slovenia an Aujesky-free member state, while Poland and Spain were also upgraded to a regime of "special trade rules" aimed at consolidating progress made to date.
