📣 EHV-1 Precaution Update 🐴❤️

Out of an abundance of caution regarding the recent EHV-1 outbreak, I’ve made the decision to pause all Equine MagnaWave sessions for the next two weeks.

Although I have not been around any horses personally or with my equipment since October and have not had any exposure, I believe taking this pause is the most responsible step. Quarantining and strict biosecurity truly matter.

Having experienced a farm quarantine myself, I know how frightening it can be — and how critical and extensive the safety measures are to protect every horse on the property.

EHV-1 can be spread through clothing, shoes, vehicles, equipment, and even our breath, and I would never risk being a carrier. Your horses’ health and safety will always come first. 🐎💛

I deeply appreciate every one of you for your understanding and for helping keep our equine community safe. If you have any questions at all, please reach out.

Stay safe, stay aware, and take care of your horses. 🫶🐴

Two positive cases of Equine Herpesvirus Myeloencephalopathy (EHM), the neurologic form of EHV-1, have led to the cancellation of the remaining Barrel Futurities of America (BFA) World Championship events scheduled for Nov. 17–22 at the Lazy E Arena in Guthrie, OK. Both affected horses had previously competed at the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association (WPRA) event in Waco, Texas (Nov. 5–9) before traveling to Oklahoma.

Below is what you need to know ⬇️

❓ What is EHV/EHM?
Equine Herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1) is a common virus in horses.
EHM, its neurologic form, is rare but serious and potentially life-threatening. Horses may shed the virus for 2–10 days before showing signs.

📍Why was the event canceled?
The Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food and Forestry confirmed two EHM cases in horses that attended both the WPRA event and traveled to Oklahoma. Officials are concerned other horses may have moved between the WPRA and the BFA events, increasing exposure risk.

🦠 How Does EHV-1 Spread?
EHV-1 can spread through nose-to-nose contact or inhalation of respiratory droplets, via contaminated surfaces (stalls, water/feed buckets, tack, trailers), or humans can also spread the virus through contaminated hands, clothing, and equipment.

🛡️ Recommended Actions for Horse Owners
If your horse attended the event, you should isolate your horse for 14 days after returning home. Take and record twice-daily temperatures (monitor for 101.5°F or higher) and consider increasing biosecurity and disinfection measures on your farm.

You should contact your veterinarian if your horse may have been exposed or shows any concerning signs.

As we continue to monitor the current outbreak of the neurologic form of equine herpesvirus (EHM) infection, let's take this opportunity to discuss once more the importance of biosecurity measures to stop disease spread. We recommend the following biosecurity precautions for horse owners, particularly if their horses have recently traveled to horse shows or were exposed to horses that have traveled:

1) Monitor horses for clinical signs (including fever, discharge from the nostrils, toe-dragging or a lack of balance) and take the temperature twice daily. Temperature greater than 101.5 F is considered a fever.

2) Immediately isolate any horse(s) showing clinical signs. Equine herpesvirus is an aerosolized virus and is spread through shared airspace, direct contact, and contaminated caretakers or equipment. A good isolation area is a separate barn or shelter that does not share airspace with healthy horses.

3) Implement movement restrictions until the situation is evaluated.

4) Contact your veterinarian to evaluate your horse and to propose a comprehensive biosecurity protocol.

5) Increase biosecurity measures that include extensive cleaning and disinfection of surfaces and equipment that come in contact with affected horses: wash or sanitize your hands between interacting with horses; take time while filling water buckets and feed tubs, do not cross contaminate; minimize the use of shared equipment and tack.

6) Make sure your horse is up to date on vaccinations.

7) Establish communication with all parties involved (owners, boarders, trainers, etc.).

More resources and information regarding biosecurity are available on the Equine Disease Communication Center's website at https://equinediseasecc.org/biosecurity

⚠️🐴 EHV OUTBREAK: What Every Horse Owner Needs to Know

If you haven't heard, a WPRA event in Waco, Texas has been identified as the source of a growing EHV-1 outbreak — including several neurological cases (EHM). Horses from across the region attended, and since then, multiple barns have reported positives.

This article breaks down:
• how the virus spread
• what symptoms to watch for
• why some horses show no signs at all
• the risks of neurological involvement
• what veterinarians and the Texas Animal Health Commission are doing now
• what YOU can do to protect your barn

Even if your horse wasn’t at this event, this outbreak is a wake-up call. High-traffic shows, shared arenas, and travel stress make EHV a threat that can spread quickly and silently.

💬 Tell us in the comments:
Have you tightened biosecurity at your barn before? What precautions do you think events should require?
