‘Bovine TB: where do we go from here?’ was the title of a ‘contentious issues’ debate at the BVA Congress in Cardiff. It was chaired by Christianne Glossop, Chief Veterinary Officer for Wales, who introduced the debate by pointing out that, although it might be argued that ‘we might not wish to start from the position that we're in’, the aim of the session was to ‘assess how things stand and then consider, taking the long term into account, whether eradication [of TB] is feasible,’ and what route might be taken to achieve that objective.
