The wild boar that was found outside Katrineholm barely two weeks ago has tested negative for African swine fever, reports P4 Sörmland.

At the same time, at least two other wild boars found in Sörmland are being analyzed by the Norwegian Veterinary Institute (SVA).

Yesterday, a total of 34 pigs had been found dead from the disease since the outbreak was discovered, according to SVA.
