Vaccinations against distemper in pets
Various animals have died
Lleve a vacunar contra el moquillo a mascotas
Domingo, 24 de Noviembre de 2013 22:20
Varios animales han muerto
Due to the presence of the disease of distemper among dogs, there may be a possible epidemic among pets, without the necessary precautions, such as immunization of animals. Guadalupe González, of the Animal Care Committee and of the international organization PEACE, recommended that the animals be disposed of by being buried in a hole. He said taking more animals who have died of distemper to the landfill would be a serious mistake which could cause further spread of this terrible disorder.
Symptoms include crusty mucous, runny nose with blood, weight loss, and apathy. This is one of the most serious diseases that can occur to pets, and causes death. It is a virus, that especially affects puppies and older dogs, who are most likely to develop complications. It is spread by contact with fluids from infected animals, including from their water and food.

Studying possible changes in trash collection schedule
Share
Currently there is 35 to 45 tonnes of trash produced daily on the island, with collection beginning at 5am daily. There is a new schedule under consideration, to collect the trash from nighttime to early morning, because residents put their trash out at night, and then stray animals feast on it, breaking the bags and scattering their contents.
The proposal is to begin the pick up at eleven at night, and spend the night touring the island, collecting trash. First they will work on dissemination of information and make the public aware of the new schedule.
This is part of a new program of trash collection that is "puliendo” (being polished?..maybe like being fine tuned?) so that it can be implemented as soon as possible. It is also noted that residents who litter or put trash out when it is not the hours for collection will be subject to fines.
