New obligation to vaccinate against bluetry disease in Berlin

A life anchor for sheep and cattle in Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf

The district office Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf pulls the protective signs up and allows pet owners to have their loved ones vaccinated against the dreaded blue-tongue disease by serotype 3 (BTV-3). This threatening plague stops nobody - sheep, cattle, and even goats can be affected. But the rescue is approaching in the form of a vaccination that can be carried out by expert veterinarians. The inactive vaccine, approved by the federal government, promises protection and security.

The blue -tongue disease spreads unstoppably, and even the capital of Berlin is not spared. The warning signals sound loud because infected veterinary stocks have already been spotted within a 150-kilometer radius. The threat is real and close.

The vaccination is the only weapon against the disease. The symptoms can be suppressed, but the situation is serious, since Germany currently has no approved vaccines against serotype 3 (BTV-3). The Federal Government reacts quickly and allows three exceptional substances to be used to contain the spread.

pet owners can breathe a sigh of relief, because the general deception of the district office offers a bright spot in dark times. The information is only one click away, on the website of the district office and the Senate Department for Justice and Consumer Protection. A little glimmer of hope on the horizon for the brave ruminations in the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district.

in the name of the ruminants,
