For more articles on the subject of the virus in the south florida area, the Sun Sentinel has been following this for the past few days. The Wellington equestrian horse shows seem to be the ones more involved in this, with 19 horses reportedly sick. " Six of the horses have shown neurological symptoms.... 3 died, but only one was confirmed to have the equine herpes virus...test results on the others are due back soon. "

There is a Wellington hotline; 561-791-4003, then 7.
