Equine Network, Boehringer Ingelheim Launch EDCC Health Watch Text Alerts

The EDCC's new text alerts ensure horse owners and professionals stay up to date on local equine disease outbreaks.

During an equine infectious disease outbreak, it’s critical that horse owners and professionals know where cases are reported and how they’re evolving as quickly as possible. That way, they can make smart travel and competition decisions to keep their horses healthy.
