Salmonella Dublin Meeting

October 10, 2018


While the cattle-adapted strain Salmonella Dublin creeps into the Northeastern US, veterinarians and farmers struggle to catch the bacteria in time to protect livestock because these bacteria often hide dormant in carrier animals, making the strain particularly hard to diagnose. 

People working with cattle are also at risk. All Salmonella strains affect most vertebrates and can jump between species. Even carriers that don't seem sick can shed bacteria, and people, companion animals, and other livestock can pick up the infection through contact with any bodily excretion. All farm personnel involved with animal care are invited to attend.

Come learn what the Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine's Animal Health Diagnostic Center (AHDC) is doing to manage and control this disease from Dr. Belinda Thompson, Senior Extension Associate at AHDC.
