A small town in Romania brought Greece to earth

A small town with only 2,500 inhabitants, Jamu Mare in western Romania, in Timiș County, as well as Tulcea, threatens sheep and goat farmers Greecesounding the alarm in other countries as well.

The reason is party which has already affected several zootechnical units in Greece and which, according to the indications so far, came from Romania. This situation, which stopped the entire sector in Greece, which paved the way for problems of shortages or price increases for several products in the future, raised an alarm in other countries, the issue most notably Russia, which banned it. imported sheep and goats from Romania a few days ago.

Inspectors from the Directorate of Veterinary Health and Food Safety have established a 25km safety zone around the area and local authorities say they have stopped the spread of the virus.
