Brucellosis
free states
WASHINGTON, D.C.
Massachusetts has
been designated free of
cattle brucellosis under
a new rating system of
the cooperative state
federal program to
control and wipe out the
disease, a U.S.
Department of
Agriculture official
reports.
“With the addition of
Massachusetts, New
England now represents
a solid block of states
free of brucellosis,”
said Billy Johnson, who
directs the national
brucellosis program for
USDA’s Animal and
Plant Health Inspection
Service.
Also rated brucellosis
free are Alaska, Con
necticut, Delaware,
Hawaii, Maine,
Maryland, Michigan,
New Hampshire, New
York, North Dakota,
Pennsylvania, Rhode
Island, Utah, Vermont
and the U.S. Virgin
Islands.
Cattle brucellosis,
sometimes called
Bang's disease, can
cause pregnant cows to
abort or give birth to
weak calves. Under the
new, more stringent,
rating system, states
must go one year with
no known infection to be
classified free of
brucellosis, Johnson
said.
