(Baonghean.vn) - In the face of the outbreak of anthrax, people in the epidemic area have brought their buffaloes and cows back to their barns to actively monitor and prevent the spread of the disease.

People in the highlands of Tuong Duong and Con Cuong districts have the habit of letting their buffaloes and cows roam freely on the hills and mountains. This is one of the reasons why diseases spread easily and are difficult to detect and treat promptly.

Immediately after the outbreak, Yen Thang and Xieng My communes (Tuong Duong); Lang Khe commune (Con Cuong) directed people to go to the forest to bring buffaloes and cows back for preventive vaccination; most people agreed to support.

Mr. Mai Van Hoang - Head of the Veterinary Station of Tuong Duong district said: "Anthrax is always latent for outbreaks all year round, but the most common time for outbreaks is from June to September of the lunar calendar; this is the time of changing seasons, so the weather changes, and the resistance of livestock is reduced. We have directed people to bring their cattle home and coordinate with the provincial Veterinary Department to fight the outbreak." Photo: Xuan Hoang

The Veterinary Department has now switched to a new treatment regimen for buffaloes and cows. In the photo: Veterinary staff of Yen Thang commune give preventive injections in Vang Lin village. Photo: Quang An

Mr. Dang Van Minh - Deputy Head of the Provincial Department of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine said: "Although the septicemia epidemic has been controlled, to avoid a re-outbreak in the coming time, we must encourage people to focus on vaccinating livestock. Although septicemia has just occurred in Tuong Duong and Con Cuong districts, neighboring districts of the epidemic area must also take the initiative in preventing the epidemic and not be subjective. The trading and transportation of livestock and poultry in and out of the area must be strictly inspected until the epidemic is completely extinguished." Photo: Xuan Hoang
