Adverse weather developments increase the risk of African swine fever outbreaks

According to the Agriculture and Environment newspaper , the Department of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine of Khanh Hoa province assessed that the complicated weather affects the health of livestock, and there is a risk of African swine fever.

According to the report of the Department of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine of Khanh Hoa province, the situation of livestock and poultry diseases in the country is complicated. Accordingly, since the beginning of the year, the country has had 197 outbreaks of African swine fever in 34 provinces and cities with 7,850 pigs infected, dead and destroyed.

However, according to Mr. Huynh Kim Khanh, Head of the Department of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine of Khanh Hoa province, the risk of African swine fever in the near future is very high. Because extreme weather changes reduce the resistance of livestock, creating conditions for pathogens to develop, spread and cause disease.

Along with that, in the current period, the province organizes many important festival events to serve tourists. Therefore, the demand for trading, transporting, slaughtering, and consuming animals and animal products increases.

While the breeding conditions of household farms are still limited, the situation of small-scale slaughtering at facilities that are not licensed to slaughter is still operating uncontrolled and unmanaged in some localities.

In addition, the virus causing African swine fever has appeared in the province. In particular, the current reorganization of the two-level local government and disease prevention work in some localities have not been implemented drastically.
