Wild boar with African swine fever in the M?rkisch-Oderland district

09/30/2020 Short messages

Probably another entry of the animal disease from western Poland

The African swine fever virus ( ASF ) was found in a baby boy near the German-Polish border in Bleyen . The animal had been killed by a hunter who appeared to be healthy outwardly, but who then noticed and reported changes to the organs typical of an ASF infection.

The new case is around 60 kilometers from the previously affected districts in Brandenburg and, according to the information available, is not directly connected to them.

According to a preliminary assessment of the Friedrich-Loeffler-Institute is likely to re-introduction of the ASP from the affected regions in western Poland. There are thus two outbreaks in Brandenburg, the responsible authorities are initiating the appropriate measures (establishment of a buffer zone, endangered area, core area).

So far, a total of 38 cases of ASF have been found in wild boars in Brandenburg.

ASF in Germany: 40 confirmed cases in wild boars


The Friedrich Loeffler Institute (FLI) today confirms two more cases of African swine fever in wild boars in Brandenburg. In total, there are now 40 confirmed cases of ASF.


Status 01.10. 2020: Two new cases in the Spree-Neisse district

The Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL) informs that the suspicion of African swine fever ( ASF ) has been confirmed in two other wild boars in Brandenburg . The national reference laboratory - the Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut - detected the animal disease in the corresponding samples today. Both sites are within the first core area.
 
Further cases of African Swine Fever have been detected in the federal state of Brandenburg:

By 2 October the Friedrich Loeffler Institute had confirmed 46 cases – all of them in wild boar. In 45 cases the place of discovery was in the current core area. The place of discovery of a case confirmed on 30 September was in the district of M?rkisch-Oderland, only a few kilometres away from the German-Polish border, and hence outside the previously defined zone at risk. The state of Brandenburg now has to adapt the existing restricted zones and protective measures to prevent the further spread of the disease. Domestic pig herds in Germany are still free of African Swine Fever.

Thu, October 8, 2020, 7:14 AM EDT?1 min read

HAMBURG (Reuters) - Three more cases of African swine fever (ASF) have been confirmed in wild boar in the eastern German state of Brandenburg, the state government said on Thursday.

The new discoveries bring the total number of confirmed cases to 53 since the first one on Sept. 10, the Brandenburg state health ministry said. All were in wild animals with no farm pigs affected, it said.

Germany's Friedrich-Loeffler scientific institute had confirmed the latest animals had ASF, the state ministry said...
 
Friedrich Loeffler Institute confirms: Two more cases of African swine fever in wild boars in Brandenburg

Locations are within the first core area - a total of 55 confirmed cases now

The Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture informs that the suspicion of African swine fever (ASF) has been confirmed in two other wild boars in Brandenburg. The national reference laboratory - the Friedrich Loeffler Institute - detected the animal disease in the corresponding samples today.

The sites are in the first core area - one wild boar was found in the Oder-Spree district, the other in the Spree-Neisse district.

The domestic pig populations in Germany are still free from African swine fever.

The number of ASF cases in Brandenburg rises to 65

October 12, 2020

The African swine fever continues to spread. Current research results have confirmed the ASF suspicion in 10 other wild boar. There are a total of 65 confirmed cases in Brandenburg.

As the Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture announced this afternoon, the ASF suspicion in the 10 sows was confirmed by the Friedrich Loeffler Institute. The locations of the ten other pieces affected by ASF are all in the first designated core area. Eight infected wild boars were found in the Oder-Spree district and two more in the Spree-Neisse district.

Another concern is currently a find in the second core area in the M?rkisch-Oderland district. A large number of wild boars were discovered there during a large-scale search on the Oder island K?strin. Parts of the discovered rotting have perished. ASF is suspected in the living pieces. FLI experts coordinate the further procedure with the responsible authorities in the district.
