This is from the New York Horse Council:
On March 4, the state Department of Agriculture and Markets Division of Animal
Industry confirmed Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA) in five horses on a
Cortland County farm.
Ten draft and buggy horses reside on the farm.
All horses have been quarantined and an investigation is ongoing. The
Division of Animal Industry will continue updates as needed.
The
following key points pertain to New York’s law for equine infectious
anemia.
** All horses must have a negative EIA test in the 12 months
preceding a change in ownership.
** All horses being imported into New York for
purposes other than movement to slaughter must accompanied by a CVI and
a negative EIA test in the preceding 12 months.
** All horses transported on a public road in New York must have had a negative EIA test in the current or previous calendar year.
