EFTBA Veterinary Newsletter – August 2019 Veterinary | EFTBA | 1st August 2019 August 2019 edition of the EFTBA Veterinary Newsletter. Editorial Soundness certainly is the most important requirement for the well-being and the performance of our horses. But though we recognize this fact and try to prevent diseases as well as possible, some germs still are a great risk for our horses. Among them, Rhodococcus equi is a particularly troublesome bacterium, above all for our foals. The reasons for our great worries lie mainly in the very special nature of this germ. With this and following newsletters, we want to familiarize our- selves with the most distinctive peculiarities of R. equi.
