US EditionEs temporada de vacaciones: ¡No empaque carne de cerdo!
- The USDA warns that African swine fever , a deadly virus, threatens the US pork industry and economy if it spreads domestically.
- ASF has infected pigs in about 120 countries, including several Caribbean nations near the US, prompting USDA to create a protection zone around Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.
- The US is the world's second largest pork exporter, and an ASF outbreak could kill millions of pigs, causing pork shortages and raising food prices nationwide.
- USDA estimates the economic impact of ASF could reach $74 billion over 10 years, risking thousands of agricultural jobs lost, and urges travelers: "Do not pack pork!" to prevent disease spread.
- Preventive measures include declaring all meats to customs when entering the US, as even cooked pork can transmit ASF, emphasizing everyone’s role in keeping the virus out during vacation travel.
