A leading swine veterinarian says there is promising progress on a couple of African Swine Fever vaccines in the works but developing the vaccine isn’t the only challenge.
Dr. Clayton Johnson with Carthage Veterinary Services tells Brownfield clinical trials and vaccine approval studies are in progress, but vaccine acceptance is another hurdle when one is developed.
“Just because there’s a vaccine available, doesn’t meant that United States producers are going to want to use it or even be allowed to use it,” Johnson said.
