California Horse Tests Positive for EIA
On Feb. 17, officials at the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) confirmed a 5-year-old Quarter Horse mare as positive for equine infectious anemia (EIA). The result came from routine testing for her return to the racetrack. Sixty-two exposed horses on the mare’s home premises were subsequently placed under official quarantine pending test results. CDFA will continue epidemiological tracing to determine if any other horses were exposed.
