Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? Some cows from France were sent to Italy without the right papers. These papers show the cows were treated to stop bugs.

What's happening? Italy found the papers were missing. This means the cows might not have been treated properly.

Does this affect me? This is about live cows, not food you buy. It does not affect you unless you work with these cows.

What should I do? If you have questions, ask your local farm or animal health office. Do not eat or use any cow products without checking first.
