Tokyo Ome Captured wild boar infected with CSF First confirmation in Tokyo 22:50 on July 2

For the first time in Tokyo, a wild boar infected with swine infectious disease "CSF" and swine fever was confirmed. According to the city, humans will not be infected, and all pig farms in Tokyo are vaccinated with CSF vaccine, so there is no concern about infection of domestic pigs.

According to the city, it was confirmed that one wild male boar caught in Ome city was infected with the infectious disease "CSF" of swine and swine fever on the 2nd.

This is the first time a wild boar infected with CSF has been confirmed in Tokyo.

According to the city, CSF is a disease of pigs and boars and does not infect humans. Also, since all pig farms in Tokyo are vaccinated with CSF, there is no concern about infection of domestic pigs.

To prevent the spread of infection among wild boars, the city is taking measures such as sprinkling food mixed with vaccine around it, and if abnormalities are found in the pigs being raised, the city will take action. I am calling to contact the local government.
