About Disease
High pathogenic porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) is an acute, highly fatal disease caused by mutant strains of the porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus. It is characterized by an infection rate of up to 100% in piglets, a mortality rate of over 50%, and a miscarriage rate in sows of over 30%. The disease can also affect fattening pigs, causing illness and death. PRRS is classified as a Category B animal infectious disease by the OIE and is widespread globally, particularly in intensive pig farming operations, causing significant economic losses in the swine industry.
