INTEGRATED DIAGNOSTIC LABORATORY INVESTIGATION OF ANIMAL DISEASE

(WYO-397-05)

A mechanism is needed to enhance laboratory diagnosis of unusual animal disease events so that immediate field investigations can be conducted and samples collected. This laboratory is a diagnostic clearing house and investigation center for multiple high-impact diseases in the state. The laboratory recently hired a veterinary epidemiology to make better use of disease data in the WSVL's electronic database, and solidify our close relationship with the Wyoming Department of Health and the Wyoming Livestock Board.
