-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The emergence of a new virus has prompted concern
in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany.

The Schmallenberg virus can cause abortions and
foetal abnormalities in ruminants. There is no evidence
of cases in Great Britain, but farmers are asked to be
extra vigilant for any abnormal signs or clinical symptoms
amongst ruminants.

Belgium: Since the first detection on December 23 2011,
an increased number of ruminant abortions, stillbirths, and
congenital malformations have been observed in Belgium.
Observations have included 13 cattle farms (all found negative),
34 sheep farms (of which 23 tested positive) and two negative
goat farms. So far, suspect samples from 94 lambs,
17 calves and five new-born goats have been tested,
among which 49 lambs proved positive.

The affected farms are distributed throughout the north of the
country (map (http://www.favv.be/_pictures/users/Schmallenberg_20120113.jpg) here), confirming a broad distribution as described
previously in the Netherlands. In addition, 23 (historical)
blood samples taken from cattle presenting with fever
and milk-drop syndrome during the months of September
and October 2011 have also been tested. Three of them
tested positive, two from the north of the country and
one from the South, confirming the circulation of the
virus in Belgium during the autumn.

The current information on earlier (September-October 2011)
clinical cases in Belgian cattle has only recently been published.
Germany and the Netherlands reported fever and milk-drop syndrome
(as well as diarrhoea) in dairy cattle in August-September 2011.

Netherlands: The SBV situation
in the Netherlands (as of noon, 16 Jan 2012), is as follows:

Cattle holdings: Tested 63, positive 0
Sheep holdings: Tested 88, positive 63
Goat holdings: Tested 7, positive 2

One more reason to stop giving them a reason to esxperiment and take the animal/souls through so much he//. Suppose their karma was to incarnate in one of the female cows in the industry?

Now that would be karmetic Universal Justice!

Just goes to show you, you can't globally feed the world with perishables deteriorating as soon as they are cut for the market, but then if illegal workers are doing it under the greed first, no inspection, they can slip anything in and have it packaged by "invisible labor" for extinction of the 6 billion souls.

A ptw plot in my book has the charities overseas, using experimental HIV booster shot on the indigent nations, and one of the patient's suspects something, when she is given the shot after the last child born and withing six months, experiences the symptoms for HIV. Anyway, the non profit pharma donation inc. is testing a new biological virus to add to the HIV medications and repeal any reduction of the virus and bring on a stronger strain. The doctor is caught by a nerdy young doctor named Dr. Akeya, who runs test for a flu bug for the patient, under the corporate head doctors nose. That doctor returns for his file while the young doctor is running the test, and sees that the light to his office is on. After seeing the younger doctor, checking patient files, the older corp doc, sneaks up on the younger doc, and tries to knock him out, and is caught.

I always have the accountability and heartwarming turn around of a maladjusted soul, in my stories. There must always be a solution and hero, so the writing of Season of the
Witnesses, is just ez, shall we say. I have to extend a word program or can't finish it as it won't allow me to critique' edit the prior chapters.

Such is life. Cher che lefam?
