Foot and Mouth Disease – The Inside Scoop for Veterinary Professionals
February 12, 2025, 7:00 PM MT
Veterinarians and other veterinary professionals may remember the events and lasting impacts of BSE. Similar impacts would be expected in the event that Foot and Mouth Disease was discovered in Canada. What should you be looking for? What do you do in the event of an outbreak? How do you report it? What advice can you give to producers and how can you spot high-risk management systems? This webinar offers veterinarians and veterinary teams practical advice on FMD and highlight the CFIA’s current regulations.
This webinar is available for one CE credit for RVTs and DVMs across Canada. After watching the entire webinar recording, you may take a quiz to receive a CE credit.
Speakers:
- Dr. Geneviève Toupin, DVM, National Veterinary Program Manager – Canadian Food Inspection Agency
