The Department of Agriculture said Friday it is validating which 3 brands of processed pork tested positive for African swine fever. Citing tests by the DA's Bureau of Animal Industry, a group of hog raisers earlier said 3 brands of tocino, longganisa and hotdog were positive for the virus that causes hemorrhagic fever in pigs that almost always ends in death. WHAT ARE THE NAMES OF THE "BRAND" OF TOCINO, LOGGANISA, AND HOTDOG THAT WERE INFECTED?
