Volusia County, FL
Alert ID: 99
September 23, 2015
A new strangles case in Volusia County has been reported. One out of five horses on the premise is affected. The affected horse was imported from a kill facility in Louisiana two days prior to the investigation. The shipper did not notice the clinical signs but the health certificate clearly shows submandibular swelling. This is the second case for Volusia County and the 22nd case for the State in 2015.
