KYIV, June 14 - A Ukrainian village was put under quarantine and six people hospitalized after laboratory results confirmed a case of mad cow disease, a report said Friday.
The Emergency Situations Ministry said that a quarantine was imposed on the village of Petrokorbovka in central Ukraine, about 300 kilometers (185 miles) from the capital Kyiv, and six of 17 residents were hospitalized for tests, according to the Interfax news agency. The carcass of the infected animal was destroyed.
Ukraine suffered a mad cow scare two years ago, but tests later showed that the suspect cows had died of rabies.
