"The bluetongue restricted zone, established by the UK Chief Veterinary Officer, aims to mitigate further outbreaks of the Bluetongue Virus in London, effective from September 21, 2024."
"Bluetongue virus is transmitted primarily by midge bites and poses severe health risks for livestock such as cattle, sheep, and camelids, with some cases resulting in fatalities."
"The government emphasizes that while the virus poses risks to livestock productivity, it does not affect humans and both milk and meat remain safe to consume."
"In response to the rising cases in Europe, the Chief Veterinary Officer has urged livestock owners to practice increased vigilance and adhere to strict animal movement regulations."
