Cases were detected in Chavex, Colfax, Curry, Grant, Lincoln, Mora and Bernalillo Counties. WNV is a mosquito-borne disease which can infect humans and their horses. Effective vaccines are available to protect horses against infection. The use of insect repellants is helpful in reducing contact with mosquitoes. The NMLB urges all horse owners to be aware of the presence of this important virus in New Mexico and take the appropriate steps to protect themselves and their horses as long as mosquitoes are present.   VESICULAR STOMATITIS IN A HORSE IN NEW MEXICO Click Here for the full story.  ANIMAL HEALTH REGULATORY PROGRAMS Our Animal Health Regulatory Programs include Bovine Brucellosis, Bovine Trichimoniasis, Bovine Tuberculosis, Bovine Johne's Disease, Equine Infections Anemia, Scrapie and Swine Health Surveillance.

At that time the State of New Mexico applied to USDA for a return to split-state status. The plan was recently accepted by USDA, designating a Modified Accredited Advanced zone that encompasses the entire area of Curry and Roosevelt Counties. The balance of New Mexico is returned to "TB Free" status. The rule allowing return to split state status for New Mexico was published and became effective on Monday, March 23, 2009.   Split State Status Granted - Click Here for Details EQUINE RESCUE Our menu to the left includes a section on equine rescue.
