First occurrence of PRRS in Uruguay
The affected premises are located in the departments of Salto and Canelones.
Cost of PRRSV at individual farm level
The aim of this study was to develop an epidemiological and economic model to determine the costs of PRRS for an individual pig farm.
PRRS detected in Israel for the first time
The OIE has confirmed two outbreaks of PRRS in two pig farms in the northern district of Hazafon.
Introduction of replacement gilts to PRRS-positive sow herds
A study was performed including 69 PRRS-positive sow herds with the aim of comparing the use of PRRSV MLV and quarantine facilities with the PRRSV status of replacement gilts at first insemination.
Evaluation of an electrostatic particle ionization technology for decreasing airborne pathogens in pigs
The reduction in infectious agents in the air by the EPI technology could potentially decrease the microbial exposure for pigs.

Porcine Reproductive & Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) around the World – What’s new regarding Global cross‐protection against PRRS - Dr. PH Rathkjen, Boehringer Ingelheim, from the 2016 North American PRRS Symposium, December 3‐4, 2016, Chicago, Illinois, USA.
Emergence of a novel highly pathogenic PRRSV in China
This study showed that the novel variant PRRSV was HP-PRRSV, and it is therefore critical to monitor PRRSV evolution in China and develop a method for controlling PRRS.

PRRSV surveillance on the breeding herd - is oral fluids from suckling piglets an alternative?
Oral fluids are practical, fast, easy, cost-effective and reliable methods for sampling pig populations, but it has not been easy or practical to obtain such samples from suckling piglets...
Sampling for the detection of agents of the porcine respiratory disease complex: Bronchoalveolar lavage or bronchial scraping?
Many veterinarians find bronchial scraping a less invasive and, above all, simpler sampling method than bronchoalveolar lavage.

PRRSV control using vaccination and optimized management: three case studies
Although the use of vaccination was effective in stabilizing the sows, the results of these case studies emphasized that elimination of PRRSV from the nursery can only be accomplished if vaccination and partial depopulation/ disinfection are supported by strict implementation of all recommended management procedures, including AI/AO.
Clinical case: Multifactorial respiratory process at nursery and finisher
This case report highlights the importance of a comprehensive approach to achieve a correct differential diagnosis.
