Description
Ep 15: TB or not TB? – Measures to curb the spread
In this episode we discuss the hot topic of bovine TB, following the new TB proposals. We take a look at these proposals and discuss their possible implications for the future if they're adopted.
We also meet three vets who are grappling with bovine TB. Professor James Wood, from Cambridge explains how our understanding has changed in the last 10 years; Sarah Tomlinson who has worked with the UKs TB Advisory Service explains how private practitioners and their farmers can work together to reduce the risks on each individual farm and Clare man Brendan Griffin enthusiastically describes the Pembrokeshire project. Damien Barrett from the Department discusses how we can apply some of these messages in an Irish context and emphasizes the need for change in our approach to tackling TB.
We have also included our new segment in this episode “What’s happening out and about?”, keeping you up to date with the latest in what’s going on with vets all around the country.
