Due to the current Equine Herpes Virus multi-state outbreak, New Mexico is instituting the following action, starting Nov. 21:
Effective immediately, interstate certificates of veterinary inspection for horses originating from states with confirmed positive EHV-1 cases will need to be issued within five days of travel.
Temperature MUST be recorded on the ICVI. The following statement must be included: “Within the last 21 days, the equids listed on this CVI have not originated from a premises currently quarantined for EHV-1, have not been exposed to EHV-1, and have not attended an event where EHV-1 has been confirmed.”
Failure to comply with these requirements may result in regulatory or legal action.
