Contagious & Infectious Diseases.
Animals showing clinical symptoms of Glanders or giving a definite posi-
tive reaction to the Mallein test will be destroyed. When animals give
doubtful reactions to the Mallein test, a report will be made to the A. V. O.
concerned for instructions.
(ii) When Glanders occurs in a unit or detachment all possible in-con-
tacts will be tested with mallein. The test will be repeated after an interval
of three weeks and the unit will not be declared free from the disease until
all in-contacts have failed to react to the second test.
(iii) The operations of a V. O. acting as an inspector under the provisions
of the Glanders and Farcy Act (see Appx. IX) are to be confined to the area
within a radius of 5 miles from the station or stations of which he is in veteri-
nary charge.
46. Rinderpest.—(i)The immunization of animals belonging to the Military
Farms Department against Rinderpest will be carried out in accordance with
instructions issued by A. H. Q. from time to time.
(ii) When possible, a V. O. who inoculates by the serum simultaneous
method, will remain in close observation of the animals for 3 days after the
inoculation; when this is not possible, a selected veterinary assistant sur-
geon conversant with the process and possessing a good knowledge of cattle,
is to be detailed for the purpose.
(iii) Handbook of Contagious and Infectious Diseases will be followed.
47. Rabies.—A. V. O. will only inspect and express an opinion on a sus-
pected case of rabies when the services of a veterinary assistant surgeon are
not available. V. O. or veterinary assistant surgeon who examines at the re-
quest of a municipal, cantonment or other authority a rabid dog or a dog
suspected of rabies, is entitlea to demand from the authority making the re-
quest the following fees in respect of such examination :—
V. O. Rs. 15 for each examination.
Veterinary assistant surgeon Rs. 5 for each examination.
Where the Cantonment Authorities employ a Municipal Veterinary Assist-
ant. Surgeon all work in connection with Rabies will be carried out by him,
and Veterinary Officers and Veterinary Assistant Surgeons may only be
called upon to give advice.
Such advice will only be given at the request of the Municipal Authority
who will be responsible for the above quoted fees.
Dogs are not allowed in Military Veterinary Hospitals.
48. Dourine.—The provisions of the Dourine Act are given in Appx. X.
49. Surra.—In view of the importance of early diagnosis in Surra
the blood of all animals who have fever for more than 24 hours will be
examined microscopically for the presence of Trypanosomes.
The Mercuric Chloride Test will be used for camels and will be carried out
as a routine measure on all camels of Silladar Companies when called up for
