BEIJING - China will start work on clinical trials of an African swine fever vaccine, state media said on Friday, as the disease continues to spread through the world’s biggest hog herd.
“In the next step, the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences will accelerate the progress of pilot and clinical trials, as well as vaccine production,” said the report. While Beijing is urging producers to replenish their stocks, some farmers say it is too risky to raise pigs until a vaccine is available.
“In the research setting vaccines can be very efficient, but if you put them into the field it can be very different,” said an international expert on African swine fever, declining to be identified due to the sensitivity of the matter.There are also at least two strains of the virus circulating in China and a vaccine would be unlikely to protect against both, said the expert.
