Commission updates veterinary measures to control African swine fever

The updated measures aim at protecting the EU single market from this serious contagious animal disease. The Commission continues to follow the evolution of the epidemiological situation and adapts the measures accordingly.

Yesterday, Member States' experts approved a Commission Implementing Decision relating to animal health control measures for African swine fever. The Decision, which amends Decision 2014/709/EU, reviews the control measures in place for ASF, to combat the spread of the disease.

The draft also updates the regionalisation for the Czech Republic, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Romania in order to help control the spread of the disease.
