B.C. farmed salmon not positive for virus
Correction, Page A2, Times Colonist, September 7, 2011

The infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV) has never been found in a test of farmed salmon in British Columbia. More than 4,700 tests were performed between 2003 and 2010, and there has never been a positive result. Tests for ISAV are done on a regular basis. Incorrect information appeared in a column by D.C. Reid on page C1 in the Tuesday Times Colonist.
