00:00The Agriculture Department strongly believes that the ASF vaccine is safe.

00:05This is after a few dead pigs have been slaughtered.

00:10The DA also has an explanation for what happened.

00:13This is what Clay Zalfardilia reported.

00:16On August 13, the Department of Agriculture started the vaccination against African Swine Fever.

00:23On a farm in Marangay Malapad, Parang in Labobatangas,

00:2612 pigs were vaccinated against the ASF vaccine.

00:30But after a few days, 5 of the vaccinated pigs died.

00:36The pigs, although negative for the ASF blood test,

00:41because that is our policy,

00:43showed a respiratory problem.

00:47And it means that their body is already compromised.

00:52It's like a so-called pre-morbidity.

00:55The pigs have not yet built up antibodies.

01:00Five days, six days, seven days, the pigs died.

01:05And the infection pressure is very high.

01:09According to the DA, 7 to 14 days before the 40% immune system response against ASF was given to the pigs,

01:1928 days is needed to build up antibodies and have up to 75% immunity against ASF.

01:28The DA believes that the ASF vaccine remains safe and effective

01:33and is being used in the controlled vaccination of the agency.

01:37In another hog farm in the same barangay that has strict biosecurity,

01:41the 26 pigs that were vaccinated had no problem.

01:46All of them are apparently healthy.

01:48No deaths, no morbidity.

01:51It means that there is no weakness.

01:52If we have a knee-jerk reaction in the pig farm,

01:57let the pigs talk to me.

01:59So I will reiterate, I'm still confident that the vaccine will work.

02:05The DA strictly monitors the vaccinated pigs

02:09to increase the controlled vaccination trial against ASF.

02:13From Lobo, Batangas, the DA also targeted the pigs in the Red Zone, La Union, Quezon, and Mindoro.

02:21The pigs in North Cotabato, Sultan Kudarat, and Cebu will also be vaccinated.

02:26150,000 doses of vaccine from Vietnam will be administered in the affected areas.

02:32According to Agriculture Secretary Francisco T. Laurel Jr.,

02:36the controlled vaccination program will protect the pigs against ASF

02:42to increase the supply and lower the price in the market.

02:46The DA is speeding up the study on the admission of other brands of ASF vaccine

02:52from the United States, Vietnam, South Korea, and Thailand

02:56for fatteners and breeders.

03:00For now, the vaccine against ASF is only for growers or big pigs.

03:05To prove that it is safe and effective,

03:08the Food and Drug Administration will issue a Certificate of Product Registration

03:14so that it can enter the country.

03:16Php 350 million was raised for the purchase of 600,000 doses of vaccine against ASF.

03:22In 470 barangays in the Philippines, there are active cases of ASF.

03:29Kalay Zalpardilla for Pambansang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
