Spread continues…..

From Finland to Puerto Rico (an area where we had not yet seen the infection), Hawaii (another new state) to St. Maarten, the deserts of Nevada to the alps of Switzerland (another new country affected!), the spread deepens and widens. Weather, climate, terrain, nothing seems to impede the spread of the ZTB virus. Hotbeds this reporting period include Maryland, Nevada, Spain and Scotland. A new outbreak in the Caribbean (perhaps you heard about the infected cruise ship?) spread the disease to two new islands as well. We had 222 reports since we last updated. Thanks for all of your help in keeping us up-to-date as the activity increases, stay safe and stay warm.
