      South Korea confirmed on Sunday new case of foot-and-mouth disease five days after it declared the end of the worst-ever outbreak that cost some $2.6 billion from last November to March.The agriculture ministry said six pigs at a farm in the southeastern city of Yeongcheon were infected and ordered the slaughter of the animals and emergency sanitisation measures around the area.
Other livestocks at the farm, like elsewhere in the country, have been vaccinated for past months and would not be culled, a ministry official said, adding officials were investigating the cause of the outbreak.
South Korea's worst-ever outbreak of the highly contagious disease saw about 3.48 million animals slaughtered since November.
    Reaction:
    I feel that its bad that this trouble thing is happening to these animals and  all them are dying off from this disease. This is also taking away their foo sypply . I think if they really tried they could find a cure for this and save alot of these animals instead of just slaughtering them .
