(LEAD) OIE will not revise U.S. risk level even if BSE case is reported: official
PARIS, May 18 (Yonhap) -- The World Organization for Animal Health will not automatically revise the United States' national risk classification if a mad cow case is confirmed there, a senior official of the Paris-based body said.
Deputy director general Jean-Luc Angot told South Korean correspondents on Friday that the organization, also know by its French acronym (OIE) is not involved in international trade and limits itself exclusively to animal health and quarantine issues.
