An official from the Bureau of Animal Industry under the Department of Agriculture conducted disinfection on a vehicle carrying hogs at an animal quarantine checkpoint along the Tagaytay-Nasugbu Highway in Tagaytay City on Friday. This is part of the ongoing efforts to contain the spread of African Swine Fever (ASF).
The Department of Agriculture has announced plans to potentially introduce ASF vaccines soon, following the declaration of a state of calamity in eight municipalities in Batangas due to the virus.
