The vaccines imported to Armenia are not effective, farmers complained
to Prime Minister of Armenia Tigran Sargsyan during his recent visit
to Armavir region of Armenia, the premier said about it at today's
session of the government and applied to Agriculture Minister Sergo
Karapetyan with a demand to clarify the situation.
The latter was trying to assure the premier that farmers lie and said
that the fact that there was no mass epidemic of cattle in Armenia
is evidence of the effective vaccination.
He also added that the imported vaccines are not tested in Armenia as
there is no relevant laboratory in the republic, and it is very much
expensive to test them in Europe. The vaccines are mainly purchased
from the European producers, which have the relevant licenses and
certificates, the minister said. The premier added that vaccines
should be sent to testing 1-2 times in a year to get information
about their quality and to know what to reply to farmers' questions.
