Tests by the USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service had detected it in two provinces in the Dominican Republic, which was soon to be followed by more provinces. What followed were scenes sadly all too familiar from many other countries in Asia and Europe: dead pigs, people in protective white suits and cullings everywhere. The big question, however, is what is next. I’m not too optimistic about the chances of neighbouring Haiti

staying free of ASF. The country is one of the poorest in the world and lacks proper (veterinary) infrastructure. Yet ASF having landed on an island also offers an opportunity to keep it there and not let it spread any further. What is needed from now on is absolute transparency, cooperation, determination and preferably knowledge about the
