Corona virus in mink on Brabant farm | Inland

Both companies had employees who showed symptoms that could indicate a corona infection, although this has not been confirmed by a test. “The mink infestation thus seems to be a case of human-to-animal infection,” says Schouten. For the time being, RIVM does not assume that mink infestations pose an additional risk to public health.

In order to prevent the virus from spreading to other mink farms, animals should not leave the affected farms and no manure should be removed. Additional hygiene measures apply to the staff. It is also advised not to use a high-pressure sprayer when cleaning the stables. Dust and air samples are taken near the companies.
