Trivia Winners!

DateMonday, June 4, 2012 at 06:00AM

The World Organization for Animal Health, or OIE, is an important international organization for the surveillance of transboundary and emerging animal diseases.  It has the authority to officially declare a country free of four diseases.  What are the four diseases, and which of them (if any) have been present in the United States in the past or present?

Answer: The four diseases are Rinderpest, Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy, Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia, and Foot and Mouth Disease. All have been present in the United States except for Rinderpest.

Congratulations to Olga Vinogradova from the University of Illinois and Brittany Beavis from Washington State University.  They were randomly chosen from the correct submissions and will be receiving $20!
