''The second option, which our country is not implementing, is to use emergency vaccination", Deyan Todorov said, adding that a plan should be developed to vaccinate all animals in the country.
''It has been confirmed multiple times that the animals in Velingrad are carriers of the sheep and goat plague virus, the Executive Director of the Bulgarian Food Safety Agency Dr. Svetlozar Patarinski said in an interview with bTV.

They were initially treated by three private practice veterinarians sought by the owners themselves. After they were unable to cope, the veterinarian overseeing the farms sought the help of the state veterinarian in Pazardzhik'', said Dr. Svetlozar Patarinski.
