🇬🇧 English

This corrigendum fixes one wording error in EU rules on the use of veterinary medicines for controlling listed animal diseases. It changes the relevant timing reference for lumpy skin disease vaccination from the “date of dispatch” to the “date of collection.” The practical effect is narrow. Operators and authorities applying the rule should check that animals were vaccinated against LSD at least 28 days before the collection date, and that immunity is still valid on that date, rather than using the dispatch date.

Key Changes

  • Replaces “date of dispatch” with “date of collection” in one LSD vaccination condition
  • Clarifies that the 28-day vaccination period is measured before collection, not dispatch
  • Keeps the requirement that the animal remains within the vaccine manufacturer’s immunity period on the relevant date
