 * Symbol confirmed.svg Article is new enough, long enough, and well referenced. Main hook is interesting (especially given the African swine fever that's ravaging farms in Asia) and supported by inline sources. ALT1 is less interesting as it's well known that HIV is generally transmitted via bodily fluids and not bug bites. QPQ is done. No copyvio detected. Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 08:02, 28 June 2019 (UTC) |}}
