DECLARATION
Ministry of Health and Agriculture
of 23 February 1960
on protective measures in brucellosis stables and isolates
The Ministry of Health and Agriculture provides, pursuant to Section 15 of Act No. 4 / 1952 Coll., on sanitary and anti-epidemic care and under Section 24 of Government Decree No. 99 / 1952 Coll., on the organisation of veterinary services and on certain veterinary measures (veterinary rules):
§ 1
Preliminary provisions
(1) Brucelosis is a protracted bacterial disease, transmissible to humans.
(2) The purpose of this decree is to ensure increased care for the health of persons who come into contact with or suspected of being infected with animals with brucellosis (hereinafter referred to as "brucellosis animals"), both in agricultural establishments where brucellosis animals are concentrated (in brucellosis isolates - hereinafter referred to as "isolates") and in stables with brucellosis animals (hereinafter referred to as "infected stables"). They are mainly caregivers and milkers of these animals and veterinary workers, as well as workers of slaughterhouses, dairies and rendering plants, when they come into contact with brucellosis animals or raw materials derived from brucellosis animals.
Measures in brucellosis isolates and infected stables
§ 2
Location of isolate and contaminated stables
The location of the isolate or infected stables shall not cause the spread of the disease. Therefore, their location shall be determined by the veterinarian in agreement with the county hygienist and the management authority of the local national committee,
(a) not to be placed close to the road;
(b) that infected stables and enclosures are separated from other stables where healthy animals are housed by space, construction and operation;
(c) that the equipment and the location of the urine pit and the fertiliser site of the isolate or contaminated stables do not give rise to pollution of the surrounding area by means of manure and urea.
§ 3
Isolate and contaminated stables
(1) The entrances to the isolate must still be closed. There must be a doorbell at the door.
(2) Each entrance to the isolation compartments and each entrance to the infected stables shall be marked with a 20x40 cm pane with a clear inscription "Infectious smashing - forbidden entry."
(3) All economic and residential buildings and surrounding areas around the premises used for housing brucellosis animals must be kept in good hygiene and protected against rodents and insects.
(4) The wood or iron mats, immersed in an effective chlorine lime or chloramine disinfectant solution, shall be placed before the entrances to the infected stables, the nursing staff rooms and the apartment in the isolation area. The mat must be so placed that anyone entering or leaving must step on it and disinfect the footwear.
(5) The floors inside the stables should be impermeable. Their surface shall have a gradient to the waste ducts nesting into the urine wells.
(6) All isolates, if intended for several years of use, must be equipped with proper washrooms (with hot showers as possible) and shoe washing and disinfection equipment (with tanks) in stages (until the end of 1960). Otherwise, at least temporary washrooms, dressing rooms and toilets must be set up at the stables.
(7) Each isolate and each contaminated stable should be equipped with a first aid kit. This first aid kit must contain in particular bandages (wadding, mules, bandages), materials for wound disinfection (iodine tincture, famosept tincture, etc.), disinfectants (ayatin, famosept) and scissors. The head of the agricultural establishment shall be responsible for the measures and the completion of the medicine cabinet. The head of the agricultural establishment shall also provide one worker with training for the isolate so that he can provide first aid where necessary. This measure is also recommended for farms with infected stables.
(8) Fertilisers for temporary storage of manure in isolation and in a farm with infected stables should be properly enclosed and covered in order to avoid access to animals, especially poultry and insects.
(9) The bladder should be impermeable. The walls, the bottom and the cover of the pit shall be made of impermeable material.
§ 4
Operation of isolate and contaminated stables
(1) Entry into the isolation and infested stables is permitted only to persons in the isolation (infested stables) employed, to the veterinary and zootechnical services and to the sanitary and anti-epidemic services and to other competent authorities and trade unions.
(2) It is forbidden to keep or let poultry and other pets or to carry and beat grain on doors of an isolate near the stables. Free running of poultry, dogs and cats is prohibited in holdings with infected stables. Dogs must be tied to a shed outside the barn.
(3) The manure must be removed from contaminated stables on a daily basis and, as far as possible, taken to a specially designated field fertiliser and properly composted. For the transport of meat from the isolate, vehicles used only for that purpose shall be identified. These vehicles are to be plastered or otherwise well sealed and cleaned and disinfected after use with 2% chlorine lime solution or other disinfectant.
(4) Diesel ducts and teats must be cleaned and disinfected daily. Urea from isolates (contaminated with stables) shall not be used to fertilize meadows and beds with vegetables and fruit.
(5) Ships and beds must be stored and transported only in solid sealed, impermeable boxes. The place where the animal was born or washed or sprayed with amniotic fluid must be immediately disinfected with chlorine lime solution. A separate birthing box, or preferably a stable, should be established for births or stunts. The tools used to clean the litter and beds are stored in a container with chlorine lime or chloramine disinfectant solution.
(6) The disinfectant solution in which mats are immersed in front of stairs in the stables and other rooms referred to in § 4 (4) must be renewed at least once a week. During freezing, the mats should be sprinkled daily with chlorine lime.
(7) Wash rooms, dressing rooms and toilets must be kept clean and regularly, at least once a week, disinfected with chlorine lime.
(8) Continuous disinfection, disinsectisation (up to 4 times per year if necessary) and extermination shall be carried out throughout the isolate compartment. Passages, if not fitted with a passage submersible disinfectant bath, shall be sprinkled daily over the whole width of chlorine lime in a sufficient layer. The rules in force must be complied with when disinfecting, systematically reducing rodents and flies and composting manure.
