Is ASF taking a trip to Italy? 🧳✈️

Until now, in Italy, the African swine fever (ASF) had only been seen in wild boars, but it seems it’s not only out there in the woods – pigs who enjoy staying home (well, at the farm) are at risk now, too. On June 9th, the first cases in the country were detected in domestic pigs. Now 1,000 animals will have to be culled so it doesn't spread.
