African swine fever has spread in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In addition to three hotspots in the village of Gornji Dragaljevac in Semberija, six more cases were confirmed in the immediate vicinity.
Samples were taken from three more farms, and the results will be known tomorrow.
Authorities are taking all measures to prevent further spread of this disease.
An appeal was sent to farmers to inform the competent veterinary service in case of any doubt, in addition to the mandatory preventive biosecurity measures.
Symptoms that indicate African swine fever, in addition to sudden death, include loss of appetite, depression, elevated temperature, bleeding on the animal’s skin, difficulty breathing, coughing and vomiting.
