African swine fever has reached the state of Rhineland-Palatinate, which borders Belgium, France, and Luxembourg.

The authorities in Germany have confirmed that the number of wild boar infected with African Swine Fever (ASF) in the state of Hesse has grown to 9. As a consequence, the infected zone had to be expanded.

Since African Swine Fever (ASF) is coming ever closer to the borders of France, the department of agriculture in Paris has intensified its warnings to visitors and foreign workers by asking them to take every possible precaution to prevent the deadly disease from coming into the country.
