African swine fever hits all localities in Vietnam
By Nguyen Quy September 3, 2019 | 09:32 pm GMT+7

Ninh Thuan Province, the only Vietnamese locality that had not been infected by the African swine flu so far, has fallen.

Last Saturday, the central province's sub-department of livestock production and animal health said the incurable disease that afflicts pigs but not humans was detected at a farm in Ninh Son District.

After 354 pigs at this farm died abnormally, tests showed that they were infected with African swine fever.

"Farmers' efforts to enhance hygienic conditions on farms have helped put a brake on the spread," Nguyen Xuan Duong, the head of the department of livestock production, told Reuters, adding that improving weather conditions had helped.

"We encourage large-sized farms that meet hygienic requirements to expand their pig production."...

By Hoang Tao October 24, 2019 | 02:59 pm GMT+7

Seven sacks of pigs infected with African swine fever were spotted on the banks of a river in Nghe An Wednesday.

They had been dumped there the night before in the central province’s Ngoc Son Commune.

After confirmation that the pigs were infected with the incurable disease, officials examined and buried them with "proper procedures."...
