[Vindicated]

I would have too bone up on my research-But I don't think that even VEE would kill those horses that fast. I would think that the vets that were on scene would be on look out for something like that.

However, it is curious-and without doing a ton of research (because I don't remember) I cannot put it at ease in my mind. I do remember something about biologicals and VEE.

I would hope that this was not something that was done by man.

I agree I don't think the virus killed the polo ponies...it's just strange to have 2 stories involving Venezuala and horses and suspicious shenanigans in the same week!
