Pork Producers Advised to Assess Biosecurity in Response to Increased Porcine Enteric Coronavirus Detection

In response to unusual increases in the detection of porcine enteric coronaviruses this summer pork producers are advised to look at what's happening on their farms that may compromise biosecurity.
The Swine Health Information Center's July domestic swine disease surveillance report, released as part of its monthly eNewsletter, highlights state specific increases in the detection of Porcine delta coronavirus and Porcine epidemic diarrhea.
SHIC Associate Director Dr. Megan Niederwerder says the detection of these two enteric viruses was higher than expected in specific states, which is atypical for the summer months.
