Study showing prevalence of cow-to-cow TB transmission emphasises need for more accurate diagnostic
December 18, 2019
New research about the transmission of bovine TB, published in the journal eLife this week, shows that the chance of cross infection between cows is much greater than between badgers and cows, with TB passing between members of the same...
