PRRS Elimination – Next Steps for the U.S.: A podcast

Podcasts are a perfect way to get caught up with new swine information! We are presenting you the latest episode from “At The Meeting… Honoring Dr. Bob Morrison” in collaboration with SwineCast.

“Doing what we know how to do” is the best next step in efforts to eliminate PRRSv from the U.S. herd. The At The Meeting team presents a clear agenda in its continuing conversation with Dr. Scott Dee (Retired Director of Applied Research, Pipestone Veterinary Services) and Dr. Reid Philips (PRRS technical Brand Manager, Boehringer Ingelheim). The group acknowledges that PRRS elimination won’t be easy or immediately profitable, but a patient, persistent and proactive approach will yield success.

Better Sequencing Can Improve PRRS Elimination: A podcast

Improved sequencing tools can make PRRS elimination easier, but the techniques also show how difficult-to-change management practices help drive the continued evolution of the PRRS virus. The ATM team talks with Dr. Kim VanderWaal (University of Minnesota) to understand the tools and the practices that need to change if the industry is to erase the drain on revenues caused by PRRS.

Efficacy of “Tooth Extraction” for ASFV elimination and relevance of point of care testing for ASFV to the field

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.

In this week’s Science Page we take a look at research into the efficacy of the “Tooth Extraction” protocol done by researchers Christa Goodell et al. to eliminate ASF.

Evolution of Mycoplasma Elimination: A podcast

The ATM team and guests provide insights into achieving Mycoplasma elimination at the system level, and the lessons these experiences might have for other swine diseases. Joining the ATM team are Dr. Paul Yeske (Swine Vet Center) and Dr. Maria Pieters (University of Minnesota).
