The average piglet birth weight from the 3 groups of vaccinated sows was statistically higher than that from the unvaccinated sows.
PCV2 viraemia, a load-dependent effect on average daily weight gain during the postweaning period
The loss associated with decreased ADWG was of 13.1 € and 7.5 €/pig at 21 weeks of age for pigs with high and medium serum PCV2 load under the scenario studied.
Seroprevalence of selected swine viral pathogens
The high seroprevalences found supports the feeling you get in the field that PCV2, PRRSV, and SIV are very widespread viruses in our farms.
PCV2 vaccination reduces antibiotic consumption in swine production
The benefit on antibiotic use is particularly clear when herds are multicontaminated by pathogenic virus and bacteria, allowing also to maintain animal welfare and operational productivity, but a good immunity against PCV2 is effective also in high health status herds.
