For Release: 24 Jan 2003
Organisation:University of Newcastle

Future foot and mouth disease epidemics in the UK could spread as quickly and easily as the 2001 outbreak unless changes are made to the fat lamb supply-chain, according to research published today, Tuesday 28th January 2003, almost two years after the first case was confirmed. The report is published by the University of Newcastle’s Centre for Rural Economy and The Institute of Logistics and Transport.
