The Swine Health Information Center's (SHIC) February Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report is available.
This month's Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report shows a moderate decrease in detection of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in wean-to-market sites. Overall, there have been three consecutive year-over-year increases in submissions and positivity of PRRSV PCRs. In the second half of January, more intense activity of enteric coronavirus, i.e., porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), porcine deltacoronavirus (PDCoV), transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), has been detected. The levels of PEDV detection were above expected in the last week of January. The SDRS bonus page brings a 2021 PRRV strains detection retrospective. In the podcast, Drs. Linhares, Magalhães, and Trevisan discuss the report, potential reasons for the observed changes, and the information presented on each page of the PDF report.
