*Vet Dept Bans Movement Of Livestock In Mbire* *Follow Pindula on WhatsApp for daily new updates* https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va84dngJP21B2nWeyM3v?bn The Veterinary Services Department has banned the movement of livestock in Mbire, Mashonaland Central Province, because of an anthrax outbreak. Acting provincial co-ordinator, Richard Chipfuwa, revealed that 34 beasts have so far died from the disease and a poor road network in the district is making it difficult for veterinary officials to access some of the dip tanks. Said Chipfuwa: ---------- itel A70 256GB $99USD WhatsApp: https://wa.me/+263715068543 Calls: 0772464000 ---------- > These (the 34) are the reported cases, but we suspect there could be many more that were not reported. > We have since mobilized vaccines to the district’s five dip tanks: Nyatsengwa, Masomo, Tengu, Bonga and Sapa, so that farmers can have the remaining herd saved. Last year, Mashonaland Central Province lost nearly 1 300 cattle due to anthrax and other livestock diseases. According to Mayo Clinic, anthrax is caused by a spore-forming bacterium, Bacillus anthracis and mainly affects livestock and wild animals. *More: New Ziana* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
