Comments: A 4–year–old Quarter Horse stallion and a 5-year-old Quarter Horse mare in Riverside County were confirmed positive for Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA). One (1) potentially exposed horse on the home premises has initially tested negative for EIA and will remain under quarantine until the sixty (60) day retest as per CDFA and USDA program requirements.
