September Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report Now Available

September 6, 2022 — Paul Sundberg

The Swine Health Information Center's (SHIC) September Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report is available.

This month's Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report reveals increased detected activity of a PRRSV strain classified as Lineage 1C RFLP 1-2-4 across the US. August 2022 had the lowest level of PDCoV detection since 2018. Even though there was a considerable reduction in the PEDV percentage of positive submissions tested by RT-PCR, reports are still above forecasted levels since the end of January 2022.

In the podcast, the SDRS hosts talk with Dr. Jianqiang Zhang, a professor at Iowa State University and a diagnostic virologist focusing on swine medicine, about PRRSV isolation, comparison of PRRSV sequences from virus isolates versus clinical samples, and updates on clinical consequences of PRRSV 1-4-4 L1C variant infection.
