Аннотация
African Swine Fever Virus (ASFV) genotype II dominates outbreaks in Tanzania's Southern Highlands, continuing to persist as the dominant strain over a decade after its first incursion in 2010. A total of 205 samples from 120 holdings were collected, with 21 confirmed ASFV-positive animals from 14 holdings. Molecular analysis revealed genetic uniformity among isolates, all clustering within ASFV genotype II. Poor biosecurity measures, such as feeding of untreated swill (80% of holdings) and lack of restrictions on visitors (90% of holdings), were identified as risk factors. Additionally, co-infection with porcine circovirus-2 (PCV-2) further complicates disease management. This study underscores the urgent need for enhanced biosecurity and farmer education to mitigate ASFV outbreaks in endemic regions.
