Affected animals
SpeciesSusceptibleCasesDeathsKilled and disposed ofSlaughtered
Wild boar:Sus scrofa(Suidae) 1100
Affected populationThe finding concerns the remains (only bones) of a wild boar that has been dead for more than six months, so the death occurred before May 2019. The bones are dry and completely fleshless. The internal control qPCR beta actin performed twice by the National Reference Laboratory was negative. On the basis of the literature, the impossibility of demonstrating in the laboratory the presence of a remnant of the wild boar’s DNA (negative beta-actin) in a bone found in the open air indicates that more than six months have elapsed since the death of the animal (cf. Article "Porcine bone samples left in open-air" - Biomedical Reports).

SpeciesSusceptibleCasesDeathsKilled and disposed ofSlaughtered
Wild boar:Sus scrofa(Suidae) 1100
Affected populationThe finding concerns the remains (only bones) of a wild boar that has been dead for more than six months, so the death occurred before May 2019. The bones are dry and completely fleshless. The internal control qPCR beta actin performed twice by the National Reference Laboratory was negative. On the basis of the literature, the impossibility of demonstrating in the laboratory the presence of a remnant of the wild boar’s DNA (negative beta-actin) in a bone found in the open air indicates that more than six months have elapsed since the death of the animal (cf. Article "Porcine bone samples left in open-air" - Biomedical Reports).

Wild boar:Sus scrofa(Suidae) 1100
Affected populationThe finding concerns the remains (only bones) of a wild boar that has been dead for more than three months, so before September 2019. The bones are dry and completely fleshless. The analysis performed by the NRL indicates an interval of 3 to 6 months of age (cf. article ? Porcine bone samples/left in open-air" - Biomedical Reports). The site of discovery is situated in zone I. This part of the zone has already been completely isolated by fencing since mid-July 2019. These fences are part of the network of more than 300 km of fences installed to isolate wild boars in the delimited zones. The nearest case is in zone II, 3.7 km away, and dates from June 2019. It is located inside the same fenced area. Within this fenced area, the number of wild boars has been greatly reduced and is practically or already null.

European Commission declares Belgium ‘free from ASF’


The European Commission has declared Belgium formally free from African Swine Fever (ASF). This means that the country will regain its free from ASF status.

The Belgian Federal Agency for the Safety of the Food Chain (FASFC) stated that all restrictions shall be lifted, so Belgium will no longer be included in Europe’s maps of countries affected by ASF. ASF emerged in 2018 in wild boar in the southern province of Luxembourg, which is situated next to the Luxembourg country. To fight the epidemic, a large area was shut down for tourists and a limited number of pig producers had to depopulate for preventive reasons.
