Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>An outbreak of theileriosis, popularly known as January Disease, threatens to wipe off cattle in Chipinge District, with cases having been recorded in Wards 16, 20 and 22.<\/p>\n

Chipinge District Livestock Promotion Officer, John Mwandifura confirmed the development, saying a team from the Veterinary Services Department is on the ground to assess the situation.<\/p>\n

Chipinge Rural District Council\u2019s Ward 20 Councillor Charles Mugidho told The Manica Post that a number of cattle have already succumbed to the disease but few farmers are reporting cases to the Vet Department. Said Mugidho:<\/p>\n

We have received a number of cases where cattle are succumbing to January Disease.<\/p>\n

The situation needs urgent intervention as villagers are losing their cattle to the disease every day.<\/p>\n

We were told by a local Veterinary Services Department officer that the disease is caused by not dipping our cattle.<\/p>\n

We have discovered that only a few farmers are reporting the outbreak of the disease to officials.<\/p>\n

Some of them are selling their sick animals to local butcheries for a song.<\/p>\n

Others are slaughtering the beasts and selling the meat to fellow villagers, thereby risking so many people\u2019s lives.<\/p>\n
