Starting Up!



Mission Protect and enhance the health of the US swine herd through

• coordinated global disease monitoring,

• targeted research investments that minimize the impact of future disease threats and

• analysis of swine health data


Scope of Work

Swine Disease Matrix project

Swine health data –

analysis and monitoring for trends

Global swine health and

issues identification

Improve the biosecurity

ability of the US swine herd


Trade Support

Secure Pork Supply Database

Swine Health Monitoring Project

(SHMP)

Global swine health and issues identification

• Swine pathogen fact sheets – Swine Influenza C&D, Japanese Encephalitis virus,

Encephalomyocarditis virus, Getah virus, Menangle virus, Seneca Valley virus, Nipah virus, Kobuvirus, Porcine rubalavirus, Porcine torovirus, Porcine teschovirus, Sapovirus, Porcine sapelovirus, Sendai virus, Swine papillomavirus, Porcine astrovirus, Swinepox virus and Vesicular exanthema of swine virus, Filovirus, Pseudorabies, Hepatitis E, Porcine adenovirus, Porcine cytomegalovirus, Vesicular Stomatitis

• Rapid Response Team organization


Swine health data analysis and monitoring for trends

• Coordinating a work plan and a resources needed proposal for veterinary diagnostic labs to standardize swine health test results

– UMN, SDSU, ISU, KSU

• Looking to identify input risks to U.S. pork production

– Identify specific risks for specific viruses

– Test mitigation protocols and industry innovation
