Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea (PED)
Porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED) virus causes diarrhea and vomiting in pigs and piglets. While boars and sows typically recover from the virus, PED can be deadly in 50 to 100 percent of infected piglets. Currently, there is no cure for it, and strict biosecurity protocols are the best way to prevent the PED virus from entering a farm or from spreading on a farm.
