Horse owner survey on Hendra virus
This survey is being conducted and funded by the Queensland Centre for Emerging Infectious Diseases, Biosecurity Queensland.
This survey is aimed to assess horse owners’ husbandry management practices for their horse(s) and their perception and attitude toward Hendra virus.
The information you provide will be used to inform support agencies on Hendra virus risk management planning and recommendations. In addition, this study will provide the opportunity to gauge the level of information on Hendra virus received by horse owners and whether an information gap exists.
The survey findings will be reported back to all leading support agencies including Biosecurity Queensland and Biosecurity New South Wales, and the horse industry sectors upon request.
Your information will also be of value to those working in human health planning, and will help improve response to any similar threats in the future.
