Abstract
Introduction. Classical swine fever (CSF) is one of the most important transboundary virus contagious multisystem diseases of domestic pigs and wild boar worldwide with huge significant socio-economic impact. The goal of the work was to study the epidemiological situation of CSF in the world in 2012-2017 and to identify the main factors that could lead to its spread in Ukraine as well as the tools for their prevention. Materials and methods. Data of official veterinary statistics, materials of scientific publications and data of OIE website (http://www.oie.int) were used. In general, annual reports of 243 countries, including Europe – 55 countries, Asia – 46, Africa – 59, America – 52 and Oceania – 31 were analyzed. Results of research and discussion. It has been established that over the past 6 years, CSF outbreaks have been recorded in 30 countries worldwide, that is 12,3% of the 243 analyzed countries; in 92 countries (37.9%) there were no outbreaks of the disease during the analyzed period; 57 countries (23.5%) did not report information on CSF; and in 64 countries (26.3%) CSF outbreaks were never registered. Most outbreaks of CSF were observed in Asia, Central and South America, less in Eastern Europe and Africa. The North American, most part of Europe (22 countries), Australia, New Zealand, New Caledonia and Japan are officially free from CSF according to OIE. In Ukraine, the epidemics of CSF have been overcome since 1997, but sporadic CSF outbreaks continue to be registered in wild boars. The main factors that could lead to CSF spreading in our country are wild boar’s migration and their contacts with domestic pigs, international trade and total vaccination against CSF. The key instrument for their prevention is rapid and sensitive diagnostics. For this reason, a RT-qPCR test kit for CSF and ASF detection was developed in the IVM NAAS Conclusion and prospects for future research. In 2012-2017, CSF outbreaks were registered in 30 countries worldwide, mainly in Asia, Central and South America, less in Eastern Europe and Africa. The North American, most part of Europe (22 countries), Australia are officially free from CSF. In Ukraine, the current situation of CSF is relatively stable, over the past 6 years, only one outbreak has been reported in wild boars, but there is still a risk of CSF virus introduction into the country and its spreading.
