Porcilis PRRS

Control of Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome (PRRS) with Porcilis PRRS

• Whole herd control of PRRS is now possible using Porcilis PRRS for finishing and breeding pigs (sows and gilts).
• The aim in vaccinating with Porcilis PRRS is to obtain a high, homogeneous level of immunity against PRRSV, throughout the herd. Piglets can be vaccinated from 2 weeks of age.
• In gilts and sows, Porcilis PRRS improves reproductive performance and reduces transplacental virus transmission. PRRSV-free pigs can be weaned, ready to be vaccinated, before being exposed to the field challenge.
• The use of Porcilis PRRS in finishing pigs further extends this period of protection against the infection and improves their performance.
• As always, management practices have an important part to play. Gilts entering the breeding unit need to be acclimatized, strict adherence needs to be paid both to the all-in/all-out principle and to the unidirectional flow of animals during the nursery and growing phases.
