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 in Austria may have a germ that can make people sick. This germ is called Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex.

What's happening? Austria told Germany that some cows with this germ may have moved there. This is not allowed.

Does this affect me? If you live in Germany and had contact with these cows, you could be at risk. Otherwise, this does not affect most people.

What should I do? If you are worried, talk to your doctor or ask a farm expert. Do not guess about your health.
