Alexandria Announces Second National Livestock Vaccination Campaign

Alexandria’s Directorate of Veterinary Medicine has announced the second national vaccination campaign for cattle, sheep and goats, scheduled to run from October 25 to November 24, 2026.

The campaign will vaccinate cattle against lumpy skin disease as part of the national livestock immunization effort.

Sheep and goats will also be covered, receiving vaccinations against peste des petits ruminants, commonly known as sheep and goat plague.

The directorate’s announcement sets out a month-long vaccination period in Alexandria, with protection against the two livestock diseases forming the focus of the campaign.
