VTV.vn - African swine fever has been found in Hoa Binh province. On March 5th, 2 out of 6 dead pigs were found positive with African Swine Fever.

To prevent further spread of the disease, localities have implemented measures to prevent and stop the disease from expanding. Some activities include banning the transport, trade, slaughtering, and consumption of illegally imported pig products and those without clear origins. 540 pigs raised in Cap village in Hoa Binh province were destroyed to prevent the spread of the disease to nearby provinces.

Ministries and agencies also need to disseminate accurate information to prevent public concern and encourage the participation of the public, particularly businesses and farmers, in the fight against African Swine Fever.
