With this confirmation, the number of lumpy skin cases that occurred this year increased to 21.
To prevent the spread of lumpy skin, the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs dispatched an initial quarantine team and an epidemiological investigation team to the farm in question to control the entry of outsiders, livestock, and vehicles into the farm.
