-Caveat Lector-
Here it is again as "foot and mouth" instead of "hoof and
mouth" so I guess that is the new name. I do not think it
is accurate and is not an improvement.
BTW, Steve, here is another tasteless name for Pres. GW's
nickname hobby. How about for Vice Pres. Cheney "CLEAR!"
Isn't that awful!

Argentina confirms case of foot-and-mouth disease
By KEVIN GRAY, Associated Press
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (March 13, 2001 8:15 p.m. EST
http://www.nandotimes.com) - Officials in Argentina, the
world's fourth-
largest beef-producing nation, on Tuesday confirmed at
least one case of
foot-and-mouth disease in its northwest region.
A statement from SENASA, the country's agricultural
sanitation agency,
said the case in one cow had been found in a remote part
of Buenos Aires
province, a popular cattle grazing area in the Pampas
region, some 250
miles northwest of Buenos Aires.
The announcement came shortly after European Union
veterinary experts
decided to ban imports of livestock and dairy products
from Argentina,
citing rumors of "outbreaks in large parts of the
country." SENASA said it
was also investigating "various" claims by farmers in
other regions of the
country, but did not say how many.
The United States, Canada and Chile - all among the
biggest buyers of
Argentine beef - introduced similar bans on Tuesday. In an
effort to show its
serious approach to the problem, Argentina formally
pre-empted those
bans earlier in the day by deciding to voluntary restrict
beef exports to
certain markets.
Last month, Argentina announced a $22 million dollar plan
to vaccinate
cattle herds against foot-and-mouth disease after media
reports of
possible cases in the countryside. The plan included
vaccination of some
12 million cattle plus the heavy restriction of herd
movements.
Earlier Tuesday, the EU panel recommended a ban on the
export of
livestock from France, where the first confirmed cases of
foot-and-mouth
disease were confirmed on the continent following an
outbreak last month
in Britain.
For Argentina, the news comes as the country is grappling
with a grinding
32-month recession. As mad cow and foot-and-mouth concerns
swept
Europe in recent months, Argentine farmers had hoped to
increase exports
there.
