The headline was even more impressive given the drag from a 40-day labour strike at General Motors Co’s US factories, which ended last Friday. The strike was reflected in auto manufacturing, which shed 42,000 jobs in October. But strip

More than a year after African swine fever began ravaging hogs in China, the virus may be escaping along the same route it’s believed to have entered — via Russia.

While the swine contagion has been present in Russia for 12 years, it’s only been spreading actively in the country’s Far East for the past few months. Authorities have reported almost 60 outbreaks in wild and domestic pigs, most within a few miles of the border with China.
