The source of the devastating foot-and-mouth outbreak in Britain has been narrowed to northern England and may be linked to a Chinese restaurant in the same region.
British Agriculture Minister Nick Brown said today the disease had been traced to swill fed to pigs on a farm at Heddon-on-the-Wall in northern England. But he would not specifically say whether the infected meat — which British media had earlier reported made its way from a Chinese restaurant into the swill — was the source of the disease. He did, however, say the government was continuing to investigate if the virus had been brought into the country via illegally imported meat.
