June Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report Now Available

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

This month’s Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report brings new PCV2 charts demonstrating changes in submissions’ average Ct values by specimen and region, enhancing the SDRS monitoring capability for PCV2. Also, the report brings information about the PRRSV L1C variant, with Iowa having the highest number of detections (76) and the continuous detection in eastern states (Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana) in May. For enteric coronaviruses, PEDV continued to have positivity above the expected level in South Dakota, Nebraska, Missouri, and North Carolina. On the other hand, PDCoV positivity is back within expected levels after two months of increased activity. Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae had a substantial increase in the percentage of positive submissions from the wean-to-market category. Lastly, Influenza A virus had an increased percentage of positive submissions in all age categories.

In the podcast, SDRS hosts talk with Dr. Pablo Pineyro about PCV2 monitoring strategies, porcine circovirus associated disease (PCVAD) in vaccinated herds, and PCV2 genotyping.
