The Swine Health Information Center’s (SHIC) March Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report is available.
This month’s Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report brings information about the activity of the PRRSV Lineage 1C variant of RFLP 1-4-4 in US eastern states such as Indiana, Tennessee, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. For enteric coronaviruses, PEDV and PDCoV positivity was within expected ranges in February and TGEV has no RT-PCR detection in the SDRS database for almost two years. Regarding Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, there was an increase in submissions, but with no increase in positivity. PCV2 had an increased positivity in the wean-to-market category. Also, PDCoV, PCV2, and Clostridiosis had spikes in the number of confirmed tissue diagnosis cases during February 2023.
In the SDRS podcast, hosts talk with Dr. Rebecca Robbins about the dissemination of the PRRSV L1C variant in US eastern states, enteric coronavirus elimination, and usage of SDRS data for animal health decisions.
