January Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report Now Available

January 4, 2023 — 

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

This month's Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report includes information about the increased RT-PCR detection of PRRSV in adult/sow farm age category, moreover, the emergence of Lineage 1C RFLP 1-2-4 with double detection in 2022 compared with 2021. In addition, the SDRS detected this strain in Iowa, Missouri, Minnesota, Indiana, Illinois, and Ohio. Influenza A virus sharply decreased RT-PCR positive detection in all age categories. Also, PEDV and PDCoV RT-PCR detection had a moderate increase in the percentage of positive submissions, mainly in the wean-to-market age category, followed by an increased number of confirmed tissue diagnoses of these enteric coronaviruses.

In the podcast, SDRS hosts talk with Dr. Clayton Johnson, partner and veterinarian at Carthage Veterinary Services, about the missing puzzle in PRRSV controlling, PRRSV Lineage 1C variant strain scenario, Lineage 1C RFLP 1-2-4 emergence, and PEDV elimination programs.
