On May 18, Manitoba's Chief Veterinary Officer confirmed yet another case of the Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus (PEDv) in southeast Manitoba.

The latest case, which is the fifth this month, was at a sow operation within the same area as the previous four sites.

Manitoba Agriculture’s Emergency Operation Centre is continuing to operate, and is assisting the affected producer and conducting a full disease investigation.

All veterinarians with clients within the area have been made aware of the site's location.

All producers are strongly encouraged to ensure full compliance of their existing biosecurity protocols.

This latest case of PEDv marks the 15th on-farm case discovered in Manitoba since February of 2014.
