This comes after British Columbia reported several animals tested positive at mink farms in that province. According to the province, there are more than 40 mink farms in Nova Scotia. That’s concerning to Ty Savoy who told NEWS 95.7 fill-in host Todd Veinotte these farms have the potential to spread disease much like they have B.C. “You look at factory farmed animals, you have the average fur farm in Nova Scotia which is roughly 10,000 to 12,000 animals,” he said. “It’s the perfect incubator of disease, even before COVID-19 there were issues with diseases on mink farms, like Aleutian disease virus and influenza virus.” Savoy says Denmark and the Netherlands destroyed all of their farmed mink because of COVID-19 outbreaks earlier this year. “The big worry is the variants that can emerge,” he said. “You have 10,000 to 12,000 animals stacked on top of each other, basically and these are immunocompromised animals because they’ve never been out in the wild.” He says mink escape from these farms often, adding it’s not difficult to find dead ones on the road near areas of the province where these farms are located. 18 comments 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail admin previous post Vaccine passport proposed by Liberals next post Party leaders reject mandatory COVID vaccines for teachers, health-care workers You may also like Wind and rainfall warnings issued for parts of... 23 نوفمبر، 2024 Pictou County District RCMP investigating serious crash involving... 23 نوفمبر، 2024 أوتاوا تنفي امتلاكها أدلة تربط ناريندرا مودي بأعمال... 23 نوفمبر، 2024 إحياء شهر التراث اللبناني من قِبل القوات المسلحة... 23 نوفمبر، 2024 أونتاريو: تشريع مقبل لحماية القادمين الجدد من الاحتيال... 23 نوفمبر، 2024 New poll shows Houston’s PCs maintaining big lead... 22 نوفمبر، 2024 Cape Breton Police issue emergency alert as they... 22 نوفمبر، 2024 Safety board calls for changes two years after... 22 نوفمبر، 2024 Fuel prices rise across Nova Scotia 22 نوفمبر، 2024 Halifax International Security Forum begins 16th year amid... 22 نوفمبر، 2024 18 comments Chienaize 4 سبتمبر، 2021 - 8:13 م Cialis Reply inestesty 15 سبتمبر، 2021 - 8:25 ص https://buyzithromaxinf.com/ – what is zithromax Reply ematict 15 سبتمبر، 2021 - 8:29 ص https://buyplaquenilcv.com/ – what does plaquenil do to your body Reply swignee 1 أكتوبر، 2021 - 6:48 ص http://prednisonebuyon.com/ – prednisolone 15mg 5ml Reply cheapest cialis 30 أكتوبر، 2021 - 5:09 ص Buy Kamagra Oral Jelly Online Reply Stoomegon 30 أكتوبر، 2021 - 5:19 ص Cialis Reply whats an essay 13 نوفمبر، 2021 - 12:34 ص You’ve gotten wonderful thing on this web-site. http://multiessay.com Reply keto cupcakes 18 نوفمبر، 2021 - 9:04 م Particularly informative looking forward to coming back again. https://ketogendiets.com/ Reply gay anime sex games 19 نوفمبر، 2021 - 12:34 ص Especially insightful look ahead to coming back. https://sexygamess.com/ Reply dirty keto diet 19 نوفمبر، 2021 - 7:37 م Wow because this is great job!
