Claim: Video of dairy industry workers milking a cow by cutting its skin.
Fact-check: Visuals of abscess draining in a Bovine shared as dairy industry milking a cow by cutting its skin - FACTLY
Verdict: the video shared in the post shows the draining process of an abscess from a bovine's body. an abscess is an accumulation of pus, usually caused by a bacterial infection in human beings, cattle and other animals. ncbi and several other medical research studies have clearly stated that a sharp incision of a scalpel blade or hoof-knife into the abscess-infected portion is one of the primary methods of draining the abscess from cattle bodies. the video does not show a cow milking method. hence, the claim made in the post is false.
