Were there more cases of swine fever during the night? There has been no news of any other outbreak of African swine fever to date, but quarantine authorities are not releasing tensions.

The scale of the burial may increase further as the government investigates the route of infection in the future. Last year, some 430,000 pigs were buried from African swine fever. Heavy Water is also conducting an epidemiological investigation into how the African swine fever virus entered the farm. A temporary suspension order has been issued for the cattle farms in Gyeonggi-do and Gangwon-do. It lasts two days from 5 am yesterday (9) to 5 am tomorrow (11). Meanwhile, in Chungcheongnam-do, which raises the largest number of pigs in Korea, due to the news of the African swine fever outbreak, the prohibited areas for pigs were expanded to 26 provinces across the country, including all areas of Gangwon-do.
