Timeline of reporting and culling of African swine fever virus IPs and control measures implemented during the African swine fever epidemic in South Korea, 2019. Reddish vertical shades represent movement restriction (standstill) imposed across the country (darker shades) or only in the affected municipalities (lighter shades). Numbers on the top represent the time when movement restriction was imposed. The colors of horizontal shades refer to IPs’ municipalities. IPs were numbered in the order of reporting dates. Over the course of the epidemic, six 48-hour standstill periods (bans on movements of livestock, persons, vehicles, and supplies to farms and slaughterhouses) were enforced across the country or in affected municipalities. IP, infected premises.
