Insights gained through real-time monitoring of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus and description of temporal trends based on laboratory data in Ontario, Canada

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’s Science Page showcases researchers Tatiana Petukhova, Maria Spinato, Tanya Rossi, Michele T. Guerin, Cathy A. Bauman, Pauline Nelson-Smikle, Davor Ojkic, and Zvonimir Poljak from the Unversity of Guelph’s real-time visualization of PRRS trends in Ontario from 2014 to 2023.

Using swine interstate transport records as a predictor of pathogen spread across the USA

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.

Megan N. Thomas, Phillip C. Gauger, Amy L. Baker and Tavis K. Anderson from Iowa State University and the USDA demonstrate that interstate hog transport could predict the spread of PRRSV in this week’s science page!
