Bluetongue Virus: Midges Transmission and Persistent Infection Increase

The bluetongue virus is transmitted by small biting flies, also called midges. It was previously hoped that dropping temperatures would make the midge less active. As a result, the number of infections should also stagnate, hoped Henk Hulshoff, chairman of the Westerkwartier department of LTO Noord. For the time being, this does not seem to be the case and the number of infections is still increasing.
