Button skin disease in the Drakensberg: The disease broke out among cattle running on the mountain farm, near Ugie in the Eastern Cape. Here the cattle are brought together with horses…..and it is almost an operation, which must be planned in advance. On Saturday, “Knopvelsiekte” was noticed among the cattle up in the mountain. Immediately, QLAPP was notified. The Vibrionic technology was deployed the next day. This highly contagious disease could be limited to only four cattle, in two different camps, which themselves did not become seriously ill either.
