Bad news from the African swine fever front regarding the Padua area. The local NAS Carabinieri reported a Chinese shopkeeper for having sold meat contaminated by the ASF virus. The military also took other measures against him.
Fine and seizure
In particular, a fine of 6500 euros was imposed for failure to trace, poor health and hygiene conditions and non-compliant labelling. As it is easy to imagine, two completely illegal cold rooms were blocked, without forgetting the seizure of 2,5 tons of food at risk to health.
