Abbreviations: –, Data not reported; Em, Echinococcus multilocularis; Eg: Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato.
Presence in the country of Echinococcus multilocularis (Em) and/or Echinococcus granulosus sensu lato (Eg).
Member States listed in the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/878 on applying preventive health measures to control E. multilocularis infection in dogs.
Positive samples from pigs without Echinococcus species information reported were mentioned in the table only for countries with known circulation of both E. multilocularis and E. granulosus sensu lato.
Data on animals from the United Kingdom (Northern Ireland) are considered for 2022. Following the agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the EU, particularly with the Northern Ireland protocol, the EU requirements on data sampling are also applicable to Northern Ireland.
Mainland Norway (Svalbard archipelago excluded where E. multilocularis was documented).
