PRRS 2021-2022 Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) by State

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.

This week we take a look at PRRS EWMA patterns in Iowa, North Carolina, Minnesota, Oklahoma, Nebraska and Illinois, thanks to research done by Mariana Kikuti, Emily Geary, Paulo Fioravante, Marcello Melini, Miranda Medrano, Cesar Corzo.

PRRS 2019-2021 Exponentially Weighted Moving Average by State

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.

This week, the MSHMP team shares the 2019-2021 PRRS incidence by state and how it influenced exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA).

Reminder: What is Exponentially Weighted Moving Average?

Keypoints

  • We continue to observe different EWMA patterns across states.
  • Iowa, Minnesota and Nebraska are undergoing an epidemic of larger magnitude and duration when compared to the previous year.
  • Even though fall and winter continue to be the seasons with overall higher incidence, sporadic cases in warmer months were observed throughout the states.

PRRS 2018-2020 Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) by State

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.

Dr. Kikuti and colleagues from the University of Minnesota compare PRRS 2018-20 EWMA patterns of different States.

Keypoints

  • We continue to observe different EWMA patterns across states.
  • Even though an overall higher incidence in colder months is observed, sporadic cases in warmer months were detected throughout the states.
