Turn on the radars📡

swine o'clock Jul 20, 2022

The porcine circovirus Type 2 has been increasingly detected in the U.S. and captured the attention of the Swine Health Information Center.

  • SHIC Associate Director Dr. Megan Niederwerder says this rise needs to be on everyone’s radar.
  • The increase is evident specifically in the wean-to-market population.

This could all be tied to reactions to vaccines, a new genotype of the virus, and/or a more virulent strain.
