flag UK bans import of German pigs, cattle, sheep, and related products due to foot-and-mouth disease.

flag The UK has banned imports of pigs, cattle, and sheep from Germany after a case of foot-and-mouth disease was confirmed there. flag The ban includes fresh meat and dairy products, though no cases have been found in the UK. flag Foot-and-mouth disease is highly contagious among cloven-hoofed animals but poses no risk to human health or food safety. flag The UK government aims to protect farmers and prevent economic impacts similar to those seen in past outbreaks, such as the one in 2001 that led to the culling of millions of livestock.
