PARIS (Reuters) -Slovenia has reported an outbreak of bluetongue disease on a sheep farm in the southwest, the World Organisation for Animal Health said on Tuesday, citing Slovenian authorities.
Bluetongue can be deadly for domestic ruminants such as sheep, cattle and goats. It does not affect humans or the safety of animal meat or milk.
One sheep was affected by the virus on a sheep farm with 49 animals in the town of Ilirska Bistrica, the report says.
