EASVO - State Veterinary Officers

The EASVO Young Network discussed on March 14th the recent FMD outbreaks, including Hungary’s new cases and Germany’s restored disease-free status.
Discussions centred around TRACES certification restricted to official vet roles.
Illegal dog imports and loopholes in EU pet passport issuance threaten animal traceability, prompting calls for clearer veterinary guidelines.
Violence against official veterinarians remains a serious issue, with data revealing frequent aggression.
Next meeting set for April 4, 2025, with ongoing focus on veterinary workforce and regulatory challenges.
