Experience in controlling a primary outbreak reproductive and respiratory syndrome in pigs

The purpose of the work was to study the epizootic situation regarding PRRS and associated forms of disease manifestation in an industrial pig farm and to determine the effectiveness of means of controlling the epizootic process. The results of the study showed that the primary clinical manifestation of PRRS is registered among the sow population and is expressed by an increase in the number of abortions, stillborn piglets and mummified fetuses. Subsequently, the disease manifests itself as an increase in the death of young animals sequentially in the areas of farrowing, rearing and fattening. The introduction of “carpet” vaccination with a live dry vaccine against porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome Porcilis® PRRS stops the manifest manifestation of the disease and allows for its further control.
