Alert ID: 466
February 20, 2017
February 16, 2017: The confirmed quarantined Equine Herpesvirus Myeloencephalopathy (EHM) case in San Diego County is recovering. CDFA continues to monitor the situation. CDFA is aware of Equine Herpesvirus-1(EHV) circulating in horses previously stabled in Tent 21 of the HITS Thermal Show grounds. However, CDFA only has regulatory authority (ie quarantine issuance authority) over EHV-1 confirmed cases with neurologic signs (Equine Herpesvirus Myeloencephalopathy.) CDFA recommends exhibitors at the HITS Thermal Show follow enhanced biosecurity protocols.
