You do realise that you don't have to be a qualified vet or an APHA tester to do skin tests (certainly in England)? There have been lay testers for several years. Some of the vet techs in our local practice are also qualified TB testers now.It’s only so accurate as the cows are pretty infected and infectious by time skin test shows up, a blood test will show TB up approx 2-3months before skin test. But they can be done by non vets so where the “jobs for the boys” in that?
