[AlpacaTalk] Re: Virus Update

My Question is in which of the 38 states have repoted the virus? Is
there a ban on transporting between states? Has there been any other
ruminants reported to have the virus? Do all states vets know about
the virus? Where are you getting your numbers? I was told that a
friends female in the her last couple weeks of pregnancy got the
virus and was treated and survived but the cria died, MN state. I am
very intrested in the states as i was planning on bringing up a young
stud.
thank you........KathyS
