THINGS ARE GETTING BACK TO NORMAL AT A SOUTHERN NEW MEXICO RACE TRACK. THE NEW MEXICO LIVESTOCK BOARD SAYS HORSES CAN ONCE AGAIN COME AND GO FROM SUNLAND PARK RACETRACK. A QUARANTINE WAS PUT IN PLACE IN JANUARY AFTER A HORSE TESTED POSITIVE FOR EQUINE HERPES VIRUS, WHICH IS HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS.
DOZENS OF OTHER HORSES EVENTUALLY TESTED POSITIVE AS WELL. THE LIVESTOCK BOARD NOW SAYS THE OUTBREAK HAS BEEN CONTAINED AND THE QUARANTINE HAS BEEN LIFTED
