Irish farmers wait for results of suspected virus in Tyrone
The results from samples taken from a sheep suspected of being infected with foot and mouth disease in Co Tyrone are expected later today.
The sheep was discovered with symptoms of the disease at a slaughterhouse in Dungannon yesterday.
There has already been one confirmed case of foot and mouth north of the border, at a farm in Meigh in South Armagh.
So far, the disease has been kept out of the Republic.
