JAKARTA - The Ministry of Health said that the public needs to ensure the health of animals sacrificed at Eid al-Adha, in order to avoid a number of infections that can attack humans.
Head of the Communication and Public Service Bureau of the Ministry of Health, Siti Nadia Tarmizi, said the diseases were BETraks as well as nail and mouth disease.
"If antractices can cause death in humans, while if HFMD can be in the form of infections in the mouth, diarrhea, vomiting nausea, so light to severe, even death," said Nadia as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, June 14.
He said it is necessary to ensure that the sacrificial animals are healthy, in the sense that they have been vaccinated, and do not get sick. He also reminded not to buy sacrificial animals whose prices are much cheaper than the market price.
"When slaughtering, make sure the waste after slaughter is in accordance with the waste disposal procedure, because it should not cause new problems or diseases," he said.
The waste in question, he said, is like blood.
Nadia also reminded to use personal protective equipment, wash hands, and disinfect meat processing areas and other animal products.
