Danish experts to investigate Romania's ASF outbreak
A team of Danish epidemiologists is going to study the ASF outbreak in Romania along with their local counterparts in order to realize a study about the way the virus spread to small-scale farms in the country.
Romanian veterinary watchdog (ANSVA) and a team lead by Sten Mortensen, head of Animal Disease Control Unit of Danish Veterinary and Food Administration will investigate the cases of ASF discovered in Romania, informs local magazine Industria Carnii.
Mortensen does research in Veterinary Epidemiology, Animal Health Economics and Disease control and he is currently working on a project named "Better African swine fever preparedness". The Danish team of experts was invited to study ASF in Romania by the president of ANSVA, Geronimo Branescu, during the EU meeting of national vet authorities held in Brussels last month.
