Several new cases of vesicular stomatitis (VS) have been confirmed in horses in Texas and Colorado over the past week. The Colorado Department of Agriculture also reported diagnoses of VS in two cattle earlier this month, and several states have modified their livestock import requirements to prevent spread of the disease.
