Synopsis
This winter marks 10 years since the first cases of cutaneous and renal glomerular vasculopathy – commonly known as Alabama rot – in the UK. Since then, almost 300 cases have been confirmed across 47 UK counties. The disease has a 90% mortality rate. As research into the disease continues, we’re joined by David Walker of Anderson Moores Veterinary Specialists in Hampshire. David is the UK’s foremost authority on the disease – and in this podcast, he takes us on a journey from when it was first recognised in the US in the 1980s, through to its emergence in the UK and trends seen with cases. He also discusses the ongoing research. During this podcast, David refers to images and an animation in the webinar. This can be watched in our new Alabama rot collection on Vet Times CPD+, alongside a gallery of images and additional resources. https://cpd.vettimes.co.uk/cpd-plus/companion-animal/cpd-alabama-rot ________________
