      Abstract

      This research is focused on the study of African swine fever virus (ASFV) survival in the leech Hirudo medicinalis.

      To detect the infection route of the virus in leeches, two introduction methods were used: blood-feeding from infected swine hosts and exposure to ASFV-contaminated water (leeches cultivated with ASFV).
