4:5-7 - Inoculation of herd exposed to disease - New Jersey Statutes

4:5-7.  Inoculation of herd exposed to disease
    When any herd or portion thereof is exposed to any contagious or infectious  disease, and the department deems the disease likely to spread to that portion  of the herd still unaffected, although isolated or quarantined, the department  may, cause or allow the herd to be inoculated for the prevention of such  diseases as can be thus mitigated.  Loss resulting from such inoculation shall  not constitute a claim against the State or the department.  Inoculation for  pleuropneumonia shall in no case be allowed without the consent of the  department, and shall be made under its direction.

     Amended by L.1946, c. 247, p. 870, s. 4.
