Taiwan Applies to be Non-Epidemic Country for African Swine Fever on One-Year Anniversary of Eradication

Reported 12 months ago

On the anniversary of eradicating African swine fever across Taiwan, the Ministry of Agriculture announces its application to the World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) to be recognized as a 'non-epidemic country' for the disease. Taiwan's successful control of the disease has led to the cessation of vaccination, marking a significant milestone for the pig farming industry and paving the way for international trade. This achievement comes after Taiwan was recognized as a 'non-epidemic zone' for foot-and-mouth disease, following a major outbreak in 1997.
