Bulgaria reports ASF outbreak at industrial pig farm
Bulgarian veterinary authorities have reported an outbreak of African swine fever (ASF) at an industrial farm with 13,000 pigs on 18 August.
Bulgaria’s Food Safety Agency said it would cull all pigs that had been in contact with the infected animals. It set up a 3-km quarantine zone around the farm to stop the spread of the disease, which is incurable in pigs, but harmless to humans.
