💨 Abstract

Hungary has declared an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in a northwestern region, affecting 3,500 cattle. The government has deployed soldiers and initiated disinfection measures to contain the spread, with additional measures at border crossings and highway exits. This is the first case in Hungary in over 50 years, and it has also been detected in neighbouring Slovakia. The disease, which does not affect humans, often leads to trade restrictions.
