budgets in 2008 than in 2007, and eight more made midyear cuts, according to a
survey by an advocacy group, the Association of State and Territorial Health
Officials. With local budgets also in trouble, many health officials fear a
serious outbreak. EU farm ministers later decided to allow member states to bring forward the payment of 70 percent of direct aid to farmers from December to mid-October, hoping it will alleviate the financial difficulties.
