What is this? Some cattle were sent to be turned into meat before the waiting time after medicine was finished. This is called a withdrawal period.
What's happening? Italy told other countries that some meat might not be safe because the rules were not followed.
Does this affect me? Meat from these cattle may be in Italy, the Netherlands, or Slovenia. If you bought meat there, check where it came from.
What should I do? If you are worried, ask your doctor or pharmacist before eating the meat.
