Today we are sharing a recent publication from the MSHMP team in collaboration with the VanderWaal and Schroeder’s labs. The objective of the study was to assess the diversity of PRRS genomes within a cohort of naïve pigs undergoing a PRRS outbreak. The full paper is available online in open access.

Review of MSHMP PRRS Chart 2 ‐ Prevalence
This is our Friday rubric: every week a new Science Page from the Bob Morrison’s Swine Health Monitoring Project. The previous editions of the science page are available on our website.
Key Points:
• Chart 2 depicts the prevalence (i.e., the proportion of breeding herds in each of the PRRS status categories over time).
• Since 2013, the proportion of farms that vaccinate (2vx) and that use field virus (2fvi) has not changed dramatically.
• The cyclical pattern of farms in status 1 observed early in the project is slowly disappearing after 2018.
