Equine Herpes Virus (EHV-1) Contained in Colorado.
The Colorado Department of Agriculture’s State Veterinarian’s office has released a number of quarantine and hold orders associated with the recent spread of Equine Herpesvirus (EHV-1) in the state; the disease is considered contained within Colorado and no new cases have been confirmed since May 20, 2011.
“I’m proud of the coordinated effort by the horse industry, veterinarians, event coordinators, and our office. Without the proactive collaboration of all involved, this disease could have had an even greater negative impact on Colorado’s horse industry,” said State Veterinarian, Dr. Keith Roehr.
