According to the "24KZ" television channel, a brucellosis outbreak has been identified. The zoonotic infection was found in 95 heads of cattle at a farm in the village. The animals were immediately sent for slaughter. The remaining cows are under observation.
"The removal and movement of animals is prohibited," the news report states.
The incident was commented on by the head of the regional veterinary department, Tolegen Imanbaev.
"An outbreak has been established at this farm, and the republican anti-epizootic team will conduct research. We will take blood samples every 15-20 days until we obtain two consecutive negative results," he said.
