Megan,
According to news reports thousands of animals are being slaughtered in order to prevent the spread of the disease. Three or four countries have outbreaks. The entire meat industry including many small family owned farms is in jeopardy. The financial losses will be staggering. And any industry involving animals - horse shows and races, circuses, zoos, etc. could find themselves in the middle of the mess. A disaster.
