Map Documentation: European Status of African horse sickness (AHS)

Abstract

The Europe AHS Map, managed by the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH), identifies regional members officially recognized as free from this non-contagious equine disease. This status is vital for safe international trade under WTO agreements. Recognition is granted annually by the World Assembly of Delegates following a rigorous scientific assessment. To maintain this status, regions must submit annual reconfirmations, recognition can be suspended or reinstated based on disease outbreaks or successful.
