Journal Title: Human & Veterinary Medicine - International Journal of the Bioflux Society - Year 2010, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
In summer of 2009 an outbreak of classical swine fever was recorded in Sahwa village, district Churu (Rajasthan), leading to death of about 80 pigs. The disease started after 3 weeks of introduction of new piglets in the population and it affected initially young ones and then adult pigs. Only exotic crossbred pigs succumbed, while indigenous breed was not affected. The outbreak was diagnosed on the basis of epidemiology, typical clinical signs and post-mortem lesions, and later confirmed by laboratory tests. The disease was controlled by observing hygienic measures, proper carcass disposal, restricting the movement of pigs and by vaccinating the healthy pig population away from the epicenter of outbreak.
