Proportion (%) Echinococcus granulosus s.l. test‐positive animals, by intermediate host species, EU, 2015–2019

Total number of animals reported positive for Echinococcus granulosus s.l. was 977,697: number of positive sheep (N = 630,915), goats (N = 86,948), pigs (N = 165,572), cattle (N = 84,003), sheep and goats (N = 9,260), wild boars (N = 428), water buffalos (N = 406), domestic solipeds (N = 33), deer (N = 98), reindeer (N = 25), moose (N = 7) and mouflons (N = 2). Positive pigs could be overestimated in co‐endemic countries with Echinococcus multilocularis.
