The rate of African plague has sharply gone down in the republic,
Gevorg Tovmasyan, deputy head of veterinary inspection at the ministry
of agriculture, told Panorama.am in a conversation. "In two months
in the region of Tavush only 1 or 2 cases were detected.
That is why we may clearly say that new reports on the plague are
unlikely," he said.
In the opinion of the specialist, quarantine was stopped in the regions
of Tavush and Lory early this month. He said only 40 days after the
last report it may be concluded that the disease has vanished. "In
any case all the neighboring countries take up precaution measures
in the issues and it may be impossible to export for six month taking
consideration the risk," Tovmasyan said.
