Netherlands: Government to Cull Mink on COVID-19 Infected Farms

After a series of coronavirus (COVID-19) detections on Dutch mink farms, the government has announced its intention to responsibly cull the inventories of the infected farms in the interest of public and animal health. While strict control measures will continue for non-infected mink farms, the government is also investigating if a one-time program can be implemented through which Dutch mink farms can voluntarily terminate their business operations in the near term.
