Dr Ross Ainsworth, who has lived in Indonesia for the past decade, claims that infected and unvaccinated cows wander close to tourist areas in Bali.
The disease has been detected on the island just as tourists start to return to Bali after the pandemic.
He has worked in the Australian beef industry for 40 years and is concerned Bali’s lack of vaccine doses and the way cattle wander in tourist areas there will heighten the risk of footand- mouth making its way to Australia and possibly New Zealand.
