July Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report Now Available

July 5, 2023 — Paul Sundberg

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

This month's Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report brings information about the increased detection of PRRSV in the state of Ohio and the summer PRRSV lineage 1C variant pattern of detection. PDCoV and PEDV had increased regional activity (PDCoV - Kansas and Illinois; PEDV - Nebraska, Missouri, and North Carolina), which is atypical for summer periods. Regarding the influenza A virus, the percentage of positive submissions didn't follow the trend of going down in the summer months, which is also atypical for this pathogen. Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae still has a high number of monthly submissions above the historical number, but positivity remains stable and within expected.

In the podcast, the SDRS team discussed the project's new developments through the USDA-NIFA funding: Monitoring new PRRSV variants, traceability of pathogen co-detection, SDRS representativeness, and further developments.
