African swine fever recorded in Gukovo, Rostov region
----------------------------------------------------
Following the detection of African swine fever [ASF] in Gukovo, 
measures have been undertaken by Rosselkhoznadzor [Federal Service 
for Veterinary and Phytosanitary Surveillance] to control the 
dangerous disease. Some violations have been encountered.

In addition to other preventive, surveillance, and control measures, 
road control posts have been operated by the police since 27 Feb 
2010. The control is, according to information, not yet accomplished. 
Several violations have been recorded.

[Gukovo is situated about 5 km (3 mi) from the Russian-Ukrainian 
border and can be located via the HealthMap/ProMED-mail interactive 
map at <http://healthmap.org/r/018N>. It may be assumed that 
Ukrainian wild boars are not separated from their Russian 
counterparts in Rostov, which means a direct, immediate threat of 
infection in the Ukraine. Following previous ASF outbreaks in the 
Russian Rostov region, preventive steps have been undertaken in 
eastern and south eastern Ukraine; see items 4, 5 in ProMED-mail 
posting 20091017.3569.

So far, ASF has been reported from 9 main administrative regions in 
Russia, all included within the Southern Federal District (map at 
<http://www.russiasregions.com/southern_federal_district.html>. The 
infected regions were (in chronological order) Chechnya, North 
Ossetia-Alania, Orenburg, Ingushetia, Stavropol, Krasnodar, Rostov, 
Dagestan, and Kalmykia. Since 11 Sep 2009, when the 2nd epizootic 
started, Russia reported to the OIE 38 ASF outbreaks; the last 
follow-up report, No 17, was submitted on 18 Feb 2010.

For a summary and an interactive map with all accumulated foci, 
marked differentially for domestic swine and wild boars, see
