The Benefits of Portable Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory:

The Portable Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory network-system in place will provide the country with a state-of-the-art detection service that will promote animal health and public safety throughout the country, reaching the smallest villages and benefiting the most isolated farmers.  In doing so, the laboratory system will support the country’s capacity to take a preventive approach to the problem of transmittable diseases.

With an online registration and reporting system in place, the system will allow for a more comprehensive dissemination of information. In this way the data gathered from the most remote village can be shared with leading scientists around the world to ensure the availability of the most accurate diagnoses available. This in turn will effectively shorten response time should an outbreak occur.

Moreover, such collaboration will allow the country to track livestock from abroad for potential disease and take steps to contain the spread of such disease. Excluding potentially contaminated livestock from crossing into its boarders will prevent disease and protect the country’s food supplies from harm.
