lol it has never went away. It is something that is always around. We just only hear about it when it hits a BIG show. I think you should always take the proper precautions. When I haul out I treat every other horse out there like they have something. I dont share feed or water buckets, I dont let my horses stand in crammed lines nose to nose with other horses and I always try parking near my friends or on the outside edges of shows so I dont have to worry about what someone elses horse is doing. When I stall overnight I bring a big bottle of my own mix of stall de germer lol and My own shavings, plus I ask for stalls on the outside edges in the less popular areas.
