Ein Pathologe entnimmt am Mittwoch (22.02.12) im Landeslabor Berlin-Brandenburg in Frankfurt an der Oder einem deformierten Schafsfoetus eine Probe. Der Tierkadaver war am Morgen im Landeslabor eingeliefert worden. Dort wurden Proben entnommen, die auf das Schmallenberg-Virus untersucht werden sollten. Das Schmallenberg-Tierseuchenvirus hat sich in Brandenburg praktisch flaechendeckend ausgebreitet. In 18 Betrieben mit Schafen sei der Erreger bisher diagnostiziert worden, sagte Landestierarzt Klaus Reimer am Freitag (24.02.12) in Potsdam auf dapd-Anfrage. Zudem sei das Virus jetzt auch bei einem ersten Brandenburger Rind nachgewiesen worden. Die Befunde betreffen nach seinen Angaben zehn Landkreise. Bei Ziegen sei der Erreger dagegen bisher nicht festgestellt worden.
