What happens when a policy decision changes the fate of hundreds of thousands of lives — animal and human?
In the new episode of “Infinitely Curious”, the English-language program of ERT’s Voice of Greece, this Sunday 11 January 2026 at 11:00 am (Athens time), Katerina Batzaki turns to investigative journalism by Solomon to examine a story that unfolded far from headlines: Greece’s choice of mass culling over vaccination during the outbreak of sheep and goat pox.
More than 450,000 animals, entire farms erased, generations of work lost — not because there was no alternative, but because of the choices made.
Solomon investigative reporter Lydia Emmanouilidou joins the program to reveal what EU officials advised, what was ignored, and what this crisis tells us about power, ethics, food, and identity.
Based on the Solomon investigation: “Ευλογιά; Η Ελλάδα προτίμησε τις θανατώσεις” https://wearesolomon.com/el/mag/format-el/erevnes/eulogia-ellada-protimise-tis-thanatwseis/
by Lydia Emannouilidou, Korina Petridi and Iliana Papaggeli.
