Comparative efficacy of concurrent administration of a PCV2 vaccine plus a PRRSV in pigs challenged with both viruses

Under the conditions of this study, it makes no difference to protection whether PCV2 and PRRSV vaccines are administered concurrently. Concurrent vaccination is efficacious for controlling co-infection with PCV2 and PRRSV.

Pigs that are resistant to PRRSv developed at University of Missouri

Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) virus was first detected in the U.S. in 1987. Pigs that contract the disease have extreme difficulty reproducing, don’t gain weight and have a high mortality rate. The disease costs North American farmers more than $660 million annually. Now, a team of researchers from the University of Missouri, Kansas State University, and Genus plc have bred pigs that are not harmed by the disease.
