African swine fever sows died in a few days

African classical swine fever is a malignant infectious disease with high fever, high resistance and high mortality. once it is infected, the mortality rate is up to 100%. At present, there is no drug that can be treated. Many people don't know how long a pig will die from African classical swine fever. Let's talk about it in detail.

Because sows are generally weak in disease resistance, toxin accumulation, poor physique and body loss, sows are more likely to be infected by African classical swine fever.

Pigs with African classical swine fever usually die within 10-15 days, and some live pigs even die within 1-2 days of fever. It is necessary to do a good job in the prevention of African classical swine fever to avoid infecting more pigs. For pig farms, it is necessary to strictly control the entry and exit of pig farm staff, transport vehicles and easily infected animals, and strict disinfection should be carried out in and out of pig farms to avoid carrying the virus to cause an epidemic in pig farms. At the same time, do not use food waste and hogwash to feed pigs, so it is easy to get African classical swine fever. In the event of an African classical swine fever epidemic, all live pigs should be culled and buried in time, which is the only control measure at present.

Since 2007, African classical swine fever has occurred, spread and spread in many countries around the world, especially in Russia and its surrounding areas.
