The Swine Health Information Center (SHIC) has released a detailed update chronicling the evolution of its Domestic Swine Disease Monitoring Report, a critical tool for tracking emerging health threats in North American swine herds.
Since its inception in 2018, the report has played a key role in providing real-time data on swine health trends, helping producers, veterinarians, and industry stakeholders stay ahead of potential disease outbreaks. The latest evolution of the report includes improved data analytics, expanded disease coverage, and enhanced collaboration with veterinary diagnostic labs across the country.
One of the major advancements has been the integration of artificial intelligence and predictive modeling, which allows for earlier detection of disease patterns and potential risks. This is particularly relevant as producers continue to battle challenges such as PRRS, PEDv, and emerging viral threats. The report now also includes deeper insights into regional disease prevalence and trends, offering a more comprehensive view of swine health in the U.S.
SHIC’s commitment to proactive disease monitoring is a testament to the industry’s focus on biosecurity and risk management. By continually refining the Swine Disease Monitoring Report, SHIC is providing producers with actionable intelligence to make informed health management decisions and mitigate potential losses.
Swine Web will continue to follow updates from SHIC, ensuring that producers have the latest insights into disease surveillance and industry health trends.
