African swine fever: what kind of disease
It is caused by DNA-containing virus which emerged as an independent family. This virus is very resistant to low temperatures. It is also resistant to drying and rotting. the Source of infection are sick animals that are carriers of the virus for more than fifteen months. Most often, the infection occurs through damaged mucous membranes, wounds on the skin, through meat, blood and so on. Sometimes the infection is carried by insects that come into contact with sick (dead) animals.
Under natural conditions, African swine fever affects wild and domestic pigs. The virus may lurk long in the body and not to make itself felt. Basically the incubation period lasts from five to ten days. Most often, the disease progresses very quickly. Its main forms: acute, super acute, chronic, subacute, latent. The most common of these forms-the acute and super acute.

Before death the temperature falls below normal. In most cases the animal dies while in a coma.
