Hendra Vacination Policy announced
Hendra Vacination Policy from ENSW Tuesday, 30 July 2013 Equestrian NSW today announced its policy regarding the Hendra Virus vaccination and requirements for all horses entering EA/FEI events in NSW where any horses stay overnight at the event venue i.e. Hendra Vaccinated Events (HVEs), to be vaccinated against Hendra Virus as of 1st January, 2014.
ENSW is currently in talks with Zoetis, the producer of the Hendra vaccine, to offer the vaccine plus a free follow up shot for EA registered horses only. As part of this initiative, ENSW will also offer a 50% reduction on the cost of online base horse registrations on the proviso that members taking up this offer also vaccinate against Hendra as soon as possible. More details on the offer from Zoetis for vaccines and the date online base horse registrations will be up and running via EA Online will be announced in the coming days. ENSW are also working through processes to enable event organisers to take advantage of the Zoetis database to confirm vaccination status of all horses entered in HVEs to make administration of this policy as simple and effective as possible.
Equestrian Australia (EA) CEO Grant Baldock, said EA welcomed the proactive steps taken by the New South Wales Branch in developing a policy to mitigate the risk of the Hendra virus. “Since a vaccine for the Hendra virus was released in November 2012, the Equestrian Australia Board has been working with our stakeholders to develop a national policy. “We applaud Equestrian New South Wales for implementing a state wide policy to mandate vaccination for all horses competing at EA/FEI events where horses are staying at overnight.
