OF Infected Milk
Health Department
Issues Warning on
Undulont Fever
BY the Associated Press.


RICHMOND. Va, July 2.-Reten.
ton OF cows affected with Bangs
disease-allowed with certain re-
strictions under a program now be-
ing followed in Virginia-is creating
a public health problem of major
Importance. State health officials
said yesterday.
They agree that undulant fever
can be contracted by using raw milk
and raw milk products obtained
from cows that are infected with
Bangs disease, but that proper pas
teurization of milk affords q salts
factory safeguard to consumers.
Omcial said the danger, how
ever. lies in the fact that in many
communities pasteurized milk is not
available and that due to the short
age Of milk in many areas there is
a tremendous traffic in milk from
one milk shed to another.
State Issues Warning.
In letter to local health officers,
the State department suggests that
each local health department take
the necessary steps to prevent raw
milk products from dairy herds in
fected with Bangs disease from
reaching the consumer.
In order to do this" the letter
added, 'it may be necessary to re-
wise or amend milk ordnance. To
control this situation, the ordinance
must contain clause requiring
either compulsory pasteurization Of
all milk and milk products, or pro-
hibit the sale of raw milk and raw
milk products from dairy herds
known to be infected with Bangs
disease"
The department said 1t had been
agreed that the State Department
of Agriculture will notify the State
Department of Health whenever a
dairy herd in the State is tested and
reactors are kept in the herd. The
Health Department will then notify
the local health officer concerned.
Dairymen Given Choice.
Under the present program. It
was pointed out, the owner of
dairy herd, as we'll as other cattle
owners. may elect to test and
slaughter reactors and, in addition,
vaccinate calves between the ages
of 4 and months as formerly. or
he may elect to vaccinate all calves
between the ages of and months
and in addition. in exceptional
cases, retain in the dairy herd ami
mails which react positively to the
test. When the vaccinated calves
reach maturity and are negative to
the test. the positive animals are
removed from the herd and are re-
placed by cows which have been
vaccinated during calfhood.
THE retention OF COWS ina dairy
herd known to be infected" 1t was
added, may be potentially danger
GUS to the consumers of raw. milk
from such herd. and thus a public
health problem of major importance
is created"
The program providing for vacci-
nation of calves is carried out under
strict supervisory control and is de-
signed to build up eventually a herd
free of Bangs disease.
