Epidemiological analysis of African swine fever in the European Union during 2025

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract During 2025, the number of EU Member States affected by African swine fever (ASF) increased from 13 to 14, following the detection of African swine fever virus (ASFV) in wild boar in Spain. The number of ASF outbreaks in domestic pigs in the EU increased from 333 in 2024 to 585 in 2025, largely driven by Romania, accounting for 81% of ...

Roles of African swine fever virus structural proteins in viral infection

Journal of Veterinary Research, 2017
African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a large, double-stranded DNA virus and the sole member of the Asfarviridae family. ASFV infects domestic pigs, wild boars, warthogs, and bush pigs, as well as soft ticks (Ornithodoros erraticus), which likely act as a ...

Infection of pigs with African swine fever virus via ingestion of stable flies (Stomoxys calcitrans ) [PDF]

, 2018
Within Eastern Europe, African swine fever virus (ASFV) has unexpectedly spread to farms with high biosecurity. In an attempt to explain this process, pigs were allowed to ingest flies that had fed on ASFV-spiked blood, which had a realistic titre for an

Long-term persistent infection of swine monocytes} macrophages with African swine fever virus

, 1994
Long-term persistent infection was established in 100 % of pigs (n = 19) experimentally infected with African swine fever virus (ASFV). Viral DNA was detected in peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes (PBML) at greater than 500 days postinfection by a ...
