Measures to Minimize Influenza Transmission at Swine Exhibitions (2018) — The Swine Exhibitions Zoonotic Influenza Working Group developed a set of measures to minimize influenza virus transmission between swine, from people to swine, and from swine to people at swine exhibitions. These measures were formulated based on current evidence and the collective knowledge of the Working Group. The suggested measures are organized to address activities before, during, and after swine exhibitions. Measures are further divided into actions that may minimize risk to swine and risk to humans, although there is significant overlap between those two groups.
