 you have to hand it to rte just watched a report from the bull breeding station in enfield county meath where 40 bulls have had to be slaughtered because of a 'virus' they interview a manager who doesnt mention the name of the 'virus' and then a farmer who says the loss of the breeding stock is a major loss to the industry but still doesnt mention the virus' name. it poses no danger  to humans and mainly affect dairy cattle but dont mention its name. why dont they say it.

What's the problem? Why does the name of the virus matter?

Clearly. But I'm sure the bulls aren't hung up on its name either.

obviously there is a reason for not naming it, the bulls were culled they didnt die on their own, perhaps the chance of a food scare ala salmonella in chickens was  the reason for it not being named. it just seems very strange it was not named

It looks like it's Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR).

More bulling for the other bulls, they'll be happy.
