'The virus causes blisters in the lips and tongue which is quite painful, and the horses may not eat for a day or two, Quintana said. It also can affect part of the hoof and the teeth on females.'
Sounds like a HORRIBLE VIRUS - All NM Horses need to be quarantined within the State for three weeks.

If you're married with children, avoid hanging out with singles.Similarly, those who are single and long for the married life should think twice before joining an all-couples party.
