A new case of anthrax has been reported at Omberg in Östergötland. The new case, a cow has grazed a few kilometers from the first outbreak, writes County Administrative Board in Östergötland.
Earlier this week, was found two cases of anthrax outbreak at a farm in the same area. This after three animals in a cattle herd found dead outside on pasture.
The SBA works with sanitation and infectious fuse on the two farms.
Since the bacterial spores are able to survive long in the soil can infection have come from old animal graves.
– it has been the anthrax outbreak earlier in this area earlier in the 1900s. But we do not know where the animals were buried, is Katharina Gielen at the Agriculture Department previously said to TT.
