New cases of African swine fever (ASF) were confirmed in Romania’s western region, including two counties which account for 18 percent of Romania’s total swine herd. Despite strong biosecurity measures, pork exports from commercial operations in these area are threatened, as the current regionalization plan is imposed at the county-level. Romania’s National Sanitary Veterinary and Food Safety Authority (NSVFSA) has confirmed over 1,100 African swine fever (ASF) cases, including 19 in commercial holdings.
