BEIJING: A floating dead pig infected with African swine fever washed up in Taiwan last week, according to a UN report, which also recorded a fresh mainland China outbreak and an attempt to illegally transport infected pigs.
It said the pig tested positive for the same strain of swine fever that has unleashed havoc in mainland China. There was also a fresh outbreak in China’s southwestern Yunnan province this month, the FAO said, totalling 163 outbreaks in 32 provinces and regions.Around one million pigs have been killed since the first outbreak of swine fever last August, according to official statistics, but that is widely considered to be an underestimate.
