The Quezon City Veterinary Department has looked into the death of pigs in Barangay Bagong Silangan. The veterinary office personnel obtained blood samples from the deceased hogs and imposed the 1-7-10 protocol following suspicions of African Swine Fever. Swines within the 1-kilometer radius of the affected area will be culled similar to the practice done in six towns of Rizal province where piggeries were affected by the ASF virus.
