Disaster Strikes

I’m a 15yr old boy from a horsey family,
Our property is about 12km out of Armidale NSW, we have 2 horses currently at home and they are under threat of EI.
Two properties barely 3 km away have been placed under quarantine.
Several cases have been detected in the surrounding districts and there’s NOT A DAMN THING ANY1 CAN DO ABOUT IT!!!!!!!
I am particularly worried about my 23 yr old Arabian gelding. We are told that older horses and foals are at greater risk of contracting EI.
Too many people’s livelihoods have been put in jeopardy because of this disease, a large percentage of these people having no
Relations with the racing industry or the thoroughbred breeding industry.
And how dare the racing industry blame recreational horses for spreading the disease,
IT IS TIME FOR US TO DEMAND ANSWERS,
ANSWERS FOR QUESTIONS REGUARDING JUST EI ACTUALLY GOT INTO
