WELL DONE WALES?
For what? Maintaining high New Herd Incidence whilst slaughtering a large proportion of cattle? This should lead to a reduction in herd incidence, not maintain it at a high level! Wales are not leading the way in science. They are demonstrating how to fail.

PATHETIC NUMBER OF BADGERS VACCINATED
According to an article published in MRCVSonline on 16th April 2024, in England, data for 2023 has revealed that a pathetic total of just 3,064 badgers were vaccinated ... or perhaps more accurately doses administered?

bovine tb Badger vaccination was never done with any particular desire to protect badgers, it was purely an attempt to prevent culling. Culling can rid badgers of TB, but vaccination cannot.

🗣️ Welsh Cabinet Secretary for Rural Affairs and Climate Change Huw Irranca-Davies added it was 'very clear' badger culling was not part of Welsh Government policy and that badger vaccination is.

Ruth Watkins bovine tb The only detail I’ve found is that 46km2 were vaccinated. (Just Pembrokeshire is 1,500km2). Drop in the Ocean is perhaps generous.
