PAHIBALO SA PUBLIKO

ADVISORYO BATOK SA AFRICAN SWINE FEVER (ASF)

Ang Kagamhanang Dakbayan sa Carcar nagpahibalo sa publiko nga adunay mga natala nga kaso sa African Swine Fever (ASF) sa pipila ka mga siyudad ug lungsod, lakip na sa mga kasikbit nga probinsya.

Tungod niini nga kahimtang, giawhag ang tanang magbabaligya ug magpapatigayon og buhing baboy nga magmatngon ug mag-amping sa pagpangita ug pagkuha sa mga baboy aron malikayan ang dugang nga pagkaylap sa ASF ug maminusan ang posibleng epekto niini sa ekonomiya sa atong dakbayan.

Ang Carcar City Slaughterhouse gipahibalo na nga DILI motugot sa pagsulod ug pag-ihaw sa mga baboy nga gikan sa mga lungsod o munisipalidad nga giila nga ASF-positive, subay sa nagpatuman nga mga regulasyon sa kahimsog sa hayop ug mga lagda sa quarantine.

Giawhag usab ang mga konsumidor sa mosunod:

* Pagpalit lamang og karne sa baboy ug mga produkto niini gikan sa kasaligan ug awtorisadong mga tinubdan.

* Siguroha nga ang karne sa baboy gikan sa mga hayop nga giihaw sa awtorisadong slaughterhouse ug husto nga na-inspeksyon.

* Likayi ang pagpalit og karne sa baboy ug mga produkto niini nga gibaligya pinaagi sa online, kay sa pagkakaron, kini dili tugotan.

* Likayi ang pagdala og karne sa baboy ug mga produkto niini gikan sa ubang lungsod o munisipalidad padulong sa Dakbayan sa Carcar, ilabi na gikan sa mga lugar nga apektado sa ASF.

Gipasiugda sa Kagamhanang Dakbayan sa Carcar nga kining advisoryo dili aron magpahinabo og kahadlok o kalisang sa publiko.

Ang African Swine Fever (ASF) usa ka sakit nga makaapekto sa mga binuhing baboy ug ihalas nga baboy, bisan unsa pa ang ilang lahi o breed. Dili kini zoonotic disease ug dili makatakod sa mga tawo. Bisan pa niini, ang ASF mahimong adunay dakong epekto sa ekonomiya sa industriya sa pagbuhi og baboy tungod kay kini mahimong hinungdan sa grabeng pagkasakit ug pagkamatay sa mga baboy nga matakdan niini.

Giawhag ang tanan nga magpadayon sa pagkamabinantayon, mosunod sa mga regulasyon sa beterinaryo ug quarantine, ug makigtambayayong sa mga awtoridad aron mapugngan ang pagkaylap sa ASF.

Magtinabangay kita sa pagpanalipod sa atong industriya sa pagbuhi og baboy ug sa panginabuhian sa atong mga mag-uuma ug magbababoy.

The City Government of Carcar, through the City Veterinary Office, sincerely extends our heartfelt gratitude to the Global Awareness and Rabies Alliance (GARC) for recognizing Carcar City for our continuing contributions to the global efforts toward rabies elimination.

This recognition is truly an honor and a meaningful affirmation of the collective efforts of our City Veterinary Office, local government leaders Mayor Patrick Paras Barcenas, Vice Mayor Perkins Barcenas De Dios and the City Council, veterinary professionals, barangay officials, animal owners, volunteers, schools, community organizations, and all stakeholders who continue to work together in protecting both animals and people from rabies.

We are especially grateful for the opportunity to promote World Rabies Day 2026 as a meaningful platform to strengthen rabies awareness, responsible pet ownership, animal vaccination, bite prevention, and the importance of timely and appropriate action following animal exposures. More than a celebration, it is an opportunity to educate, engage, and empower our communities toward a safer and rabies-free future.

Our journey toward rabies elimination is a shared responsibility. Every vaccinated dog and cat, every responsible pet owner, every informed family, and every community member who understands how to prevent rabies brings us one step closer to our goal.

We dedicate this recognition to everyone who has been part of Carcar City's continuing commitment to rabies prevention and elimination. May this inspire us to strengthen our programs, expand community participation, and continue building a culture of responsible pet ownership and public health awareness.
