The Tennessee State Veterinarian has placed the Equine Hospital at the University of Tennessee Veterinary Medical Center under a seven day quarantine. The Veterinary Medical Center expects to maintain voluntary isolation for an additional period of time as clinicians investigate a neurologic case caused by a contagious strain of a virus. Due to the potential for spread of Equine Herpes Virus type 1 (EHV-1) among horses and camelids, movement to and from the equine hospital is restricted.
