THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW !
Livestock Auction Committee
meeting on Tuesday, September 6th is canceled. Next
meeting is Tuesday, November 1st at 7:00 p.m.
From Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural
Development:
There has been a confirmation of a pig at
the Muskegon County Fair last week infected with influenza A
H3N2. In addition, there has been at least one exhibitor
at the fair that has been confirmed with influenza H3N2v
infection and potentially two other people (one exhibitor and
one fair attendant) that have tested positive for influenza A on
pcr. We are waiting for confirmation and sub-typing on
those individuals.
There has also been a case of swine
influenza at another fair. The subtype has not been
determined at this time. With the heat and stress that
pigs will be under this summer it is possible we will see
additional cases of influenza. If any pig has a
temperature of 105 or more at your fair, you must contact MDARD
as soon as possible and work closely with your fair
veterinarian. A map of the MDARD Field Veterinarians is
can be found here.
Please remind fair attendees and exhibitors to wash their hands
after being in contact with animals. Also, be sure that
everyone working with animals at the fair are keeping an eye out
for signs of illness and keep your fair veterinarian updated.
If you have any questions, please call Stephen Hussey, DVM
517-284-5685 (office) or 517-512-0563 (cell) or the main MDARD
Animal Industry number 800-292-3939.
