South African meat imports banned in several countries
The disease was first detected in the northern district of Limpopo, a province which is bordering Botswana, Zimbabwe and Mozambique.
South African authorities said the embargo and outbreak will not affect the country's meat export business and announced that the affected areas are under quarantine and that there are investigations currently taking place to determine the cause of the outbreak and to stop the disease from spreading.
The World Organisation for Animal Health has placed a suspension on the country's FMD free status license. South Africa will receive back the status once the outbreak is fully put under control.
