Qld could be rid of horse flu by March: Govt

The State Government says Queensland could be free of horse flu by March.

There are still 300 infected properties in the south-east 'red zone', but that is down from more than 2,000 in November last year.
Acting Primary Industries Minister Andrew Fraser says vets will carry out random testing and intense surveillance over the next two months to ensure equine influenza has been eradicated.
Last week, the Department of Primary Industries (DPI) relaxed restrictions on horse movements.
