Dear Carlos: in front of this pathology there is not much to make, since they are of quick and highly contagious presentation. How good that took the measures of prevention for the rest of the facility next to your adviser and to avoid infection to the human being, in which the illness is mortal.
The most effective thing is the vaccination, although we don't have a specific vaccine for the species. Here in Chile he/she differs of another pathology similar called symptomatic carbunclo, but a veterinarian with experience he/she should not have bigger problem in carrying out the diagnosis. The important thing is that it is an illness of obligatory accusation to the state organisms, and with it to establish the corresponding sanitary measures, and to isolate the focus of presentation of the illness.
Sincerely.

Dear:
I cannot affirm what I say for not being within my reach, but it is necessary to be careful with the diagnoses of since laboratory the clostridiales is always and they are still developed in cadaver, contaminating everything. If the death was sudden with a great intestinal, breathing, heart commitment and of quick rot, with presence of great quantity of gas (pigs like Balls), it can exist the possibility that this is an intestinal torsion and insurance you will have this square, what doesn't remove that the laboratory finds clostridios because they are as normal flora, and before an occasion, the colonization of these is immediate.
I wait it is you useful what I count, but we see it very followed and they seem clostridiales, but they are not it.
Greetings,

Dr. Jorge Simón
Swinish Technical adviser
