The Guardian: Quarter of world's pig population 'to die due to African swine fever'
World Organisation for Animal Health warns spread of disease has inflamed worldwide crisis.
About a quarter of the global pig population is expected to die as a result of an epidemic of African swine fever (ASF), according to the intergovernmental organisation responsible for coordinating animal disease control.
In the last year the spread of the disease has taken policymakers by surprise, and has been particularly devastating in China – home to the world’s largest pig population. The disease is also established in other Asian countries such as Vietnam and South Korea, and continues to wreak havoc in eastern Europe, where the current outbreak began in 2014.

WNU Editor: This disease once introduced into a herd has a fatality rate of almost 100%. The impact on people's diet, especially in countries like China, has been devastating. In the past few months I have received requests from some of my contacts in China if I can refer them to someone in Canada so that they can import some pork products.

Enjoy the chops while they are still available. When the disease crosses breeds watch out and maybe think about getting your cockroach farm started.

You should have stuck to your usual 3 dots.
Actually they really aren't "my" three dots. My secretary looks at this stuff for me and puts the dots on things she thinks I might be interested in.
Interesting enough is that her name is Dorothy or for short "Dot".
