In addition to the infected herd, there’s also one life line herd.
A life line herd is a herd traced from an infected animal in the original infected herd.
“The one life line herd has been released from quarantine based on negative results from laboratory testing to date,” the CFIA says.
There is also one contact herd and two trace-in herds.
A contact herd is a herd that may have co-mingled with the infected herd.
Testing on the contact herd will continue into the fall.
A trace-in herd is a herd that has provided animals to the infected herd.
Testing is complete on one trace-in herd, and testing on the other will finish after summer grazing ends, the CFIA’s update reads.
