The central pillar of the remediation is the examination obligation, which results from § 3 of the ordinance. The aim of the examination is to identify BVD virus shedders, so-called PI animals. After they have been diagnosed, these must be killed immediately to protect the other cattle in a herd.
Further regulations regulate the movement of cattle between different farms and the implementation of vaccination measures.
