Ep 13: Bracing for Bluetongue – are we ready? (Re-release)

In this episode, we revisit our previous episode on Bluetongue virus serotype 3 as it arrives on our island. We hear from veterinary epidemiologist, Inge Santiman-Berends, about how Bluetongue has affected the Netherlands. We discuss how the virus has been transmitted through midges, possible vaccines, as well as signs and symptoms. We speak with Audrey Jenkinson, Superintending Veterinary Inspector at the Department, about Ireland's plans to manage this highly impactful virus and the key factors we need to take into account.
