SOLO - The Solo City Government received a ration of 100 doses of oral and nail disease vaccine (PMK) from the Central Java Provincial Government.
"We got a ration for 100 heads because it is adjusted to the population in Solo," said Head of the Surakarta City Food and Livestock Security Agency (Dispertan KPP) Eko Nugroho in Solo, Central Java, Antara, Wednesday, June 29.
He said the cattle population in Solo is around 300 heads. However, not all cows are vaccinated because some do not qualify to be vaccinated.
"Among them are because they are pregnant, there are also some who are still sick. For this vaccine, according to existing regulations, vaccination is only for healthy livestock, because those who are sick or in the healing process or have recovered already have antibodies, so they don't need to be vaccinated," he said.
According to the regulations, PMK vaccination is only for healthy cattle, both adult and young cattle, especially those over the age of two weeks. Based on the data, he said, so far 18 cows have been confirmed to be infected with the FMD virus. Of the total, six of them have been declared cured, so 12 are still in the process of being healed.
"Until the second day, we have vaccinated 35 tails," he said.
For the number of vaccinators, he said, as many as 60 people have been prepared which are distributed in five sub-districts in the city of Solo.
"During the inspection process, there is a Tiban market or point of sale. We also check there for cattle that want to be slaughtered at the mosque," he said.
In addition, he said, each animal is also equipped with a health certificate to be followed up with a physical condition check to see if it indicates FMD or not.
