A n g mga posibleng nakontaminado sa virus kadtong mga produkto nga gihimo sugod Agosto 2018.

Nanawagan usab si Lapiz sa mga resort ug hotel operators sa lalawigan sa pag-monitor sa ilang mga bisita nga posibleng nagdala og mga produktong karne sa baboy gikan sa mga naapektuhan nga mga nasud.

Una nang nipagawas og pahayag ang Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sa pagdili sa nasud sa mga produktong karneng baboy tungod sa ASF.

Matud pa sa FDA, sakop sa temporary ban ang mga nasud nga Belgium, Moldova, Mongolia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Zambia, Czech Republic, South Africa, ug Bulgaria.

Apil sa temporary ban ang processed pork meat product nga Ma Ling nga halinon ug sikat sa mga Pinoy.

Una nang gipasabot sa FDA nga tuyo lamang nilang malayo ang nasud sa maong virus.

Ang African swine fever usa ka ‘highly contagious’ nga sakit sa mga baboy mga makaingon og hilanat, pagkawala sa gana sa pagkaon, homorrhages sa panit ug internal organs nga mahimong ikamatay sa maong hayop.

Dili kini hulga sa panglawas sa tawo apan mahimo kining makaapekto sa economic loss sa industriya sa baboy sa nasud, matud sa OPV. (ecb/PIA7-Bohol)
