PRRS (Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome) stands as the most economically devastating disease in US swine production since the eradication of classic swine fever. What makes this viral pathogen so destructive? Dr. Nic Lauterbach, Technical Services Veterinarian with Pharmgate Animal Health, brings seven years of front-line experience battling PRRS to this essential conversation.The days of PRRS being merely a seasonal concern have vanished. Modern producers now face this challenge year-round across operations of all sizes and geographic locations. Dr. Lauterbach explains how PRRS manifests through its namesake symptoms – reproductive failures (including abortions and stillbirths) and respiratory distress that weakens immune defenses. This immunosuppression creates the perfect storm for secondary bacterial infections that would otherwise pose little threat to healthy pigs.Prevention through rigorous biosecurity remains the gold standard approach, but when PRRS threatens, a comprehensive strategy becomes essential. Dr. Lauterbach details Pharmgate's multi-faceted approach, highlighting their PRRSGard vaccine, which has demonstrated efficacy against relevant wild-type strains. For herds experiencing active infection, managing secondary bacterial complications becomes crucial – another area where Pharmgate offers proven solutions.Ready to strengthen your PRRS defense strategy?
