Alberta, Canada

Alert ID: 1087

October 09, 2018

Source: Canadian Food Inspection Agency

On September 29, 2018, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) confirmed a case of Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA) in the municipal district of Bonnyville, Alberta. The horse had potential exposure to EIA and at the time of testing was exhibiting clinical signs compatible with EIA infection. A CFIA investigation is underway and as per program policy, a quarantine has been placed on the infected animal and other animals on the premises. The quarantine will remain until all disease response activities have been completed, including follow-up testing and ordering the destruction of positive cases. Trace-out activities may require the CFIA to undertake actions at additional premises as outlined in the current program policy.
