More than 250 cattle have contracted foot-and-mouth disease in Xuan Trach Commune in Quang Binh Province, the provincial administration said Saturday.

Local authorities said they had strengthened the work of disinfecting disease-prone areas and quarantining vulnerable cattle. They also banned the slaughter and transport of cattle until the disease was completely wiped out.

Earlier this week, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development reported 324 cattle had been infected with foot-and-mouth disease this year in the provinces of Kon Tum in the Central Highlands, Son La in the northern mountainous region and Long An in the Mekong Delta.
