The fight against infectious diseases of animals also directly affects the economy of the state.
The main factor in preventing most animal diseases is preventive vaccination. The instability of the epizootic situation in the country can lead to significant economic losses associated with a decrease in the weight gain of productive animals, their death, and restrictions on trade, both in the domestic and foreign markets.
"The production of veterinary drugs is an important industry for ensuring a stable epizootic situation in the country, and this industry needs the support of the state," commented Vysotskyi.
