What is Hog Cholera?

hog cholera or pig fever is a disease that can infect pigs. This viral disease can cause symptoms such as fever, diarrhea, vomiting and convulsions, and can lead to death. Many countries take HOG Cholera seriously due to the economic risk for the pig. Some countries may therefore require measures such as killing the whole herd in which an infected pig is found. In countries where the disease has been removed, import restrictions, such as the quarantine period, can be implemented to prevent the disease. If the farmer had suspected his pigs had a disease, he should act quickly to avoid spreading. Infected pigs may seem heartless and tired and may stop eating, have fever and experience problems with coordination and convulsions. This disease can manifest as several forms, including mild, chronic and acute. Each of these forms is highly infectious and dangerous for pigs. Pigs can get sick for a short time, but they seem to improve.In the infected Kares, the virus can remain and proliferate in its reproductive tract. Infected pigs can have small litters or dead piglets. Over time, the infected pig will often have relapse and die.

Acute infection is the most serious and fastest acting form of cholera. During two weeks after infection, the pig may die. Symptoms of acute pig fever include fever between 105 ° F (about 41 ° C) and 107 ° F (about 42 ° C), lack of eating, vomiting and diarrhea. Pigs can also toss or have trouble walking. Eye problems can also arise.

The chronic form of HOG cholera is a similar acute version, but progresses more slowly. The pig with this form of the disease can be alive for several months before it dies. Among other symptoms, the pig can also develop red spots on its abdomen, ears and muzzle.

HOG cholera can be transmitted directly from the infected pig to healthy. Indirect inferEcce can result in several ways, including clothing, equipment, food and water, as well as infected feces or other body fluids. The infected mother can also give the disease to her piglets in the womb, which sometimes results in piglet death. Collections can also be born seemingly healthy, but can still bear the virus and pass it on before they die.
