No. 10. The facts were immediately reported to the Medical
Officer of Health of the area in which the milk was produced,
whose Veterinary Inspector visited the farm, and took several
samples of milk, all of which were submitted to the biological test
for the presence of tubercle bacilli, with negative results in each
case.
No. 24. Also in this case the facts were immediately reported
to the Medical Officer of Health of the producing area, who caused
investigation to be made by the Veterinary Inspector. All the
cows were examined and, with the exception of one, no symptoms
of disease were found. This animal was subjected to the Tuberculin
Test, and having failed to re-act was deemed to be free from
tuberculosis. A further sample was taken and found to be
negative.
