Appeal for Foot-and-Mouth Disease Protection Measures by Polis Chrysochous Mayor

The Mayor of Polis Chrysochous, Giotis Papachristofi, has appealed for the implementation of protective measures against foot-and-mouth disease, given the presence of many livestock farms in the area. Mr. Papachristofi expressed his hope that the disease will not spread to the province of Paphos and called on livestock farmers to follow the instructions of the Veterinary Services. The Municipality of Polis Chrysochous assured that it will support the livestock farmers in any way possible. This appeal was also made within the framework of a meeting of the Ministry of Agriculture on the water issue and foot-and-mouth disease.
