The organising committee of the Mediterranean Equestrian Tour in Oliva Nova, Spain, would like to provide an update on the situation at the Centro Ecuestre Oliva Nova following the confirmed cases of EHV-1 that occurred during Spring MET II 2023.<\/p>\n
The situation at the venue is under control. Since February 28, 2023, at 6 PM, there have been no febrile horses at the venue and none of the horses have showed neurological signs. There are currently\u00a056 horses at the venue,\u00a0which have been divided into different groups depending on their health status. Per March 3,\u00a046 of these horses have returned negative tests,\u00a0while five have returned positive tests and five are inconclusive.<\/p>\n
Ten horses, without significant clinical symptoms, have since the cancellation of Spring MET II on February 22 been moved to the University Equine Hospital in Valencia (CEU) for prevention and close monitoring. Furthermore, two horses out of a group of six returning from Oliva Nova to Limburg, the Netherlands, have tested positive for EHV-1 and have been placed in quarantine where they are being closely monitored.<\/p>\n
The\u00a0horses currently remaining\u00a0at the venue will start departing for their home stables when the FEI and the Federal Veterinary Authority\u2019s strict testing requirements have been fulfilled. Fourteen\u00a0of them have already received a green light to leave the venue, after returning negative tests as per the requirements.<\/p>\n
Considering the development at the venue, the MET organising committee is confident that Spring MET IV \u2013 scheduled from April 4-23\u00a02023 \u2013 can go ahead as planned.<\/p>\n
