News from the other side of the world.

Last week it was announced that all pets being exported to New Zealand from the UK from January 2012 on will need to have been vaccinated against rabies at least 6 months before travel and then blood tested at least 3 months prior to arrival in New Zealand.
Currently no rabies vaccination is required and therefore export can be almost immediate.
As of January 2012 New Zealand will no longer be treating the UK as a clean rabies free country.
Why can New Zealand see the threat we face but we can't?
