    Epidemiological comments 1. 51th affected farm (Tahara city in Aichi) On December 16th, some pigs were found to be ill in the farm. The official veterinarians of the Livestock Hygiene Service Centre (LHSC) immediately visited the farm to conduct clinical inspection and sampling. RT-PCR for CSF virus at the LHSC and found to be positive on December 16th. The amplified product was sent to National Institute of Animal Health for sequencing and identified that the detected strain was wild one. Stamping out and disinfection of contaminated materials, tools and facilities is being carried out. 2.Summary of the wild boar surveillance (As of 11th December) [Gifu prefecture (since 13th of September 2018)] Tested (RT-PCR): 2,846 wild boars (461 dead and 2,385 captured), Positive: 1,113 (342 dead and 771 captured) [Aichi prefecture (since 14th of September 2018)] Tested (RT-PCR): 1,412 wild boars (44 dead and 1,368 captured), Positive: 107 wild boars (20 dead and 87 captured) [Nagano prefecture (since 14th of September 2018)] Tested (RT-PCR): 526 wild boars (120 dead and 406 captured) Positive: 139 (45 dead and 94 captured) [Mie prefecture (since 14th of September 2018)] Tested (RT-PCR): 1,104 wild boars (43 dead and 1,061 captured), Positive: 30 (3 dead and 27 captured) [Fukui prefecture (since 14th September 2018)] Tested (RT-PCR): 297 wild boars (10 dead and 287 captured), Positive: 33 (6 dead and 27 captured) [Toyama prefecture (since 14th September 2018)] Tested (RT-PCR): 202 wild boars (18 dead and 184 captured) Positive: 30 (10 dead and 20 captured) [Gunma prefecture (since 14th September 2018)] Tested (RT-PCR): 488 wild boars (17 dead and 471 captured) Positive: 12 (3 dead and 9 captured) [Saitama prefecture (since 14th September 2018)] Tested (RT-PCR): 436 wild boars (14 dead and 422 captured) Positive: 36 (8 dead and 28 captured) [Ishikawa prefecture (since 14th September 2018)] Tested (RT-PCR): 218 wild boars (14 dead and 204 captured) Positive: 11 (6 dead and 5 captured) [Shiga prefecture (since 14th September 2018) Tested (RT-PCR): 329 wild boars (17 dead and 312 captured) Positive: 71 (1 dead and 70 captured) [Shizuoka prefecture (since 14th of September 2018)] Tested (RT-PCR): 623 wild boars (85 dead and 538 captured) Positive: 21 (14 dead 7 captured) [Yamanashi prefecture (since 14th of September 2018)] Tested (RT-PCR): 71 wild boars (14 dead and 57 captured) Positive: 3 (3 captured) [Other 32 prefectures (since 14th of September 2018) Tested (RT-PCR): 1074 wild boars (386 dead and 688 captured) Positive: 0 Note 1: On 15th October 2019, Japan amended the Specific Infections Livestock Disease Control Guidelines for CSF to allow vaccination in domestic pigs in designated prefectures (“vaccination recommended areas”). The Vaccination in domestic pigs are practiced in the following prefectures, Gunma, Toyama, Ishikawa, Fukui, Nagano, Gifu, Aichi, Mie, Shiga, Saitama, Shizuoka and Yamanashi. Note 2: When CSF outbreaks happen, Japan implement movement restrictions in the Shipment Restriction Zone (SRZ), which is established within 3-10 km radius of the affected farm, and in the Movement Restriction Zone (MRZ), which is established within 3km radius of the affected farm. SRZ will be lifted when all the results of active surveillance program are negative, and 17 days have passed after the completion of full implementation of control measures (stamping out, disinfection etc.). MRZ will be lifted when all the results of active surveillance program are negative, and 28 days have passed after the completion of full implementation of control measures (stamping out, disinfection etc.).

        Epidemiological comments 1. The 56th affected farm (Okinawa city in Okinawa) On February 1st, some pigs were found dead and it was reported to the Local Hygiene Service Centre (LHSC). The 56th affected farm is located within a 3-km-radius from the 52th, 53rd, 54th and 55th affected farms. RT-PCR for CSFV was conducted at the LHSC and it was found positive on February 2nd. On February 6th, stamping out and disinfection were completed at the 56th affected farm. Note 1: On 15th October 2019, Japan amended the Specific Infections Livestock Disease Control Guidelines for CSF to allow vaccination in domestic pigs in designated prefectures (“vaccination recommended areas”). The vaccination in domestic pigs is practiced in the following prefectures: Gunma, Toyama, Ishikawa, Fukui, Nagano, Gifu, Aichi, Mie, Shiga, Saitama, Shizuoka, Yamanashi, Kanagawa, Tokyo, Kyoto, Niigata and Nara. Note 2: When CSF outbreaks happen, Japan implements movement restrictions in the Shipment Restriction Zone (SRZ), which is established within 3-10 km radius of the affected farm, and in the Movement Restriction Zone (MRZ), which is established within 3km radius of the affected farm. SRZ will be lifted when all the results of active surveillance program are negative, and 17 days have passed after the completion of full implementation of control measures (stamping out, disinfection, etc.). MRZ will be lifted when all the results of active surveillance program are negative, and 28 days have passed after the completion of full implementation of control measures (stamping out, disinfection, etc.).

The vaccination in domestic pigs is practiced in the following prefectures, Chiba, Ibaraki, Tochigi, Gunma, Toyama, Ishikawa, Fukui, Nagano, Gifu, Aichi, Mie, Shiga, Saitama, Shizuoka, Yamanashi, Kanagawa, Tokyo, Kyoto, Niigata and Nara. Note 2: When CSF outbreaks happen, Japan implement movement restrictions in the Shipment Restriction Zone (SRZ), which is established within 3-10 km radius of the affected farm, and in the Movement Restriction Zone (MRZ), which is established within 3km radius of the affected farm. SRZ will be lifted when all the results of active surveillance program are negative, and 17 days have passed after the completion of full implementation of control measures (stamping out, disinfection etc.). MRZ will be lifted when all the results of active surveillance program are negative, and 28 days have passed after the completion of full implementation of control measures (stamping out, disinfection etc.).

            Swine fever outbreak confirmed at pig farm in Gunma
            Sep 27, 2020

            The agriculture ministry said Saturday that classical swine fever (CSF) infections have been confirmed at a pig farm in the city of Takasaki, Gunma Prefecture, marking the first outbreak of the infectious disease among farmed pigs in the country in about half a year.

            It is the first classical swine fever case at a pig farm in Gunma since the first outbreak in Japan in 26 years was confirmed in 2018. The Gunma Prefectural Government will slaughter all of the roughly 5,400 pigs at the farm in accordance with the law.

            In the prefecture, vaccinations started for farmed pigs in October last year, following the discovery of an infected wild boar. But the animals found with the disease at the affected farm, all piglets, had yet to be vaccinated...
