Equine Infectious Anemia - Madera County

Good morning California Practitioner,

A 24-year-old Paint mare in Madera County has been confirmed positive for
Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA). The mare had been tested to travel out of
state, and was euthanized on January 24, 2020 after infection was confirmed.
There are no exposed horses on the horse's home premise and an
epidemiological investigation is ongoing to determine if any horses were
exposed. This is the first confirmed case of EIA in California since 2017.

Contact your veterinarian if you have questions.
