The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) of the USDA proposes to classify the State of Sonora, Mexico, as Level 1 for brucellosis. This proposal is based on their evaluation of Sonora for bovine brucellosis classification. APHIS is seeking public comments on this proposal until April 26, 2021, and the evaluation and related documents can be accessed online or in their reading room. After the comment period ends, APHIS will announce their final decision regarding the classification.
Simple Explanation
The people who take care of animals want to say that Sonora, a place in Mexico, is really safe and good at dealing with a sickness that cows can get. They're asking everyone to tell them what they think before they decide for sure.
