Assessment of listing and categorisation of animal diseases within the framework of the Animal Health Law (Regulation (EU) No 2016/429): anthrax.

Supporting No for 3: If the use for bioterrorism purposes is not considered here (it is tackled in a specific criterion and anthrax should be dealt with as a bioterrorist threat with clearly significant consequences on public health, epidemic or even potential pandemic implications), the significant consequences or threats to food safety are unlikely, since anthrax may lead to sporadic cases, even deaths in groups of animals but neither to significant human health problems nor to food safety issues from a normal control perspective, nor epidemics nor pandemics and thus it would not be routine problem requiring a high level of routine control. 3.3.2.
