Q

Official measures in the protection zone in case of bluetongue confirmation

A

the identification of all holdings with animals inside the zone;  the implementation by the competent authority of an epidemio- surveillance programme based on the monitoring of sentinel groups of bovine animals (or, in their absence, of other species of ruminant) and vector populations;  a ban on animals leaving the zone. However, exemptions from the exit ban may be decided on in particular for animals situated in part of the zone where there is a proven absence of viral circulation or of vectors. Vaccination of animals against bluetongue and their identification in the protection zone may be decided.
