The government today, on June 6th, approved a new procedure for combatting infectious diseases that affect animal populations. This procedure includes measures such as prevention, eradication, and quarantine, along with necessary conditions and regulations.

Furthermore, there are plans to introduce a new vaccine to address emerging diseases in animal populations. This vaccine will be used in cases where there is a genetic change in a known pathogen, the emergence of a new geographic area, or the unexpected appearance of a pathogen. The introduction of this vaccine will significantly enhance the ability to provide emergency assistance to populations in the event of a village-wide epidemic, a widespread outbreak, or the threat of an epidemic.

By implementing this program, the government aims to assess and manage the risks associated with the development and spread of infectious diseases. This includes risks to animal, human, and animal health. The program will also create the necessary conditions for prevention and control, and will develop effective measures to protect animal health and production. Additionally, it will seek to improve the overall sanitary and epidemiological situation.
