ILA is considered both nationally and internatinally to be a serious and contagious fish-disease. The region of Sør-Troms, north in Norway, has had outbreaks of the disease recently. The National Veterinary Institute recommends that vaccination should be tried as a supplement to other measures in order to combat the disease. The consequences for the industry are substantial.

The Norwegian Food Authority has asked the National Veterinary Institute for advise on this matter, and the institute has now submitted its report.
