In 2018, there were 746 new TB herd incidents in Wales, representing a 5% decrease compared to 2017. Of these incidents, 11, 233 animals were slaughtered as a result of TB, representing a 12% increase. This increase is largely due to heightened surveillance and the identification and removal of a higher number of infected animals as we get ahead of the disease.
The refreshed TB eradication programme, launched in 2017, fundamentally changed the way the disease is tackled in Wales with the introduction of regionalisation. The regional system has enabled different approaches to disease eradication to be implemented, based on the different risks in each part of Wales.
