[Status of swine flu in livestock trading law].
In contrast to the opinion found in current textbooks, ferkelgrippe (also called enzootic pneumonia or mycoplasmal pneumonia) is to be considered part of the legal deficit known as "swine fever (including hog cholera)" in the Imperial Order of 1899. Modern diagnostic procedures make it possible to successfully rule out or confirm suspected cases of this legal deficit. The diagnostic certainly made possible by PCR and ELISA procedures could give new impetus to efforts to reform stock-trading law.
