Because African swine fever is highly contagious, once it is suppressed, there may be symptoms of large-scale infection and related death. In view of this situation, we must use scientific and reasonable methods to kill as soon as possible to minimize economic losses, and at the same time report to government departments for professional help.
What is African swine fever?
African swine fever refers to an acute infectious disease caused by the spread of African swine fever virus through insects and the contact between sick pigs and domestic pigs. At present, there is no cure. The disease was first reported in Kenya 192 1 Africa. After investigation, it has been listed as a legally reported animal epidemic disease by the World Health Organization, and it is also an animal infectious disease that needs to be prevented in the process of raising livestock in China. Many domestic pig farmers and farmers should have high enough vigilance and awareness.
The incubation period of African swine fever is generally about five to nineteen days.
The onset of the disease is short, acute infection, mortality as high as 100%, accompanied by symptoms such as elevated body temperature, skin bleeding, poor appetite or vomiting in sick pigs. It is an animal-borne disease with great biological influence. The incubation period is usually five to nineteen days, and the length of incubation period is related to the antiviral ability of sick pigs and the spread of the virus. The virus did not begin to detoxify until the end of the incubation period. Before the clinical symptoms appeared, the virus was detoxified with the excrement of the sick animals. Once pigs have clinical symptoms, it means that all pigs are infected.
At present, there is no specific medicine to cure classical swine fever, and the sick pigs should be slaughtered as soon as possible after being found.
In the existing investigation and study, there is no specific medicine to cure classical swine fever. Once domestic pigs are infected, they must be isolated from healthy pigs as soon as possible, and the government is required to send professional epidemic prevention personnel to kill and treat animals to reduce the economic losses of farmers.
