Libya Implements Temporary Livestock Ban in Ghadames

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

In a proactive step to contain the spread of contagious diseases, the Ghadames Municipal Guard announced on Tuesday an immediate ban on livestock and sheep sales within the city limits of Ghadames until further notice.

This decision follows a concerning uptick in epidemic diseases, particularly the widespread occurrence of Foot-and-Mouth Disease among livestock and sheep. The disease has been rapidly spreading from one area to another, posing significant health risks.

The Ghadames Municipal Guard urges all residents and livestock owners to adhere to the temporary ban to halt the further transmission of these diseases and safeguard public health. Authorities are closely monitoring the situation and will provide updates as new information emerges.

This preventive measure underscores the importance of swift action and vigilance in addressing health risks associated with livestock trade, particularly concerning highly contagious diseases like Foot-and-Mouth Disease.

Residents of Ghadames and neighboring areas are encouraged to stay abreast of the latest health advisories and support local authorities’ efforts in maintaining a safe and healthy environment.

Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD) is a highly contagious viral illness affecting cloven-hoofed animals, leading to substantial economic losses in the livestock industry.

Characterized by fever, mouth and foot blisters, and lameness, FMD can swiftly spread among animals through direct contact or exposure to contaminated materials. While typically non-lethal, the disease severely affects animal health and productivity.

Outbreaks demand immediate measures to control transmission, including quarantine, vaccination, and in severe cases, culling affected animals. The disease’s ease of transmission highlights the critical role of robust biosecurity measures in preventing outbreaks.
