Organizations Filed Purposes:
Protect and enhance the health of the U.S. swine herd through coordinated global research monitoring, targeted research investments that minimize the impact of future disease threats, and analysis of swine health data.
Make industry swine health information available to help uncover, communicate, and mitigate regional and national risks to herd health. Survey to identify pathogens and emerging diseases and uncover regional differences that might be able to be used in predicting disease risk and current outbreaks models. Refine domestic swine disease monitoring and reporting. Inform the industry about emerging diseases or syndromes that might look like an isolated incident to help producers evaluate and prepare for health risks, supporting the development of an effective disease risk and outbreak model. Investigate newly identified agents associated with disease, and understand the clinical relevance and epidemiology of novel viruses in the Swine Disease Matrix so that veterinary diagnostic labs can continue to find these viruses in the Matrix to identify if they are associated with cinical disease syndromes. Beter understanding of the epidemiology and pathogenicity of the agents are important to identifying if they have a role in the clinical disease. Offer diagnostic fee support to help detect emerging diseases so they are quickly and accurately identified for action by the industry.
Monitor swine diseases around the world to identify potential risks to the US swine herd. Use that information to inform swine health and biosecurity research priorities and the US pork industry, including allied industries so appropriate measures to prevent introduction into the US can be implemented. Research common inputs that might quickly introduce disease into herds across the country. One of these common inputs is feed and feed components. Research focuses on getting data sufficient to support a comprehensive risk assessment about potential roles imported feed components and their movement across the country have in disease introduction and dissemination. Research and communicate cost-effective improvements in national, regional and on-farm biosecurity to prevent disease introduction. Interact with international organizations and animal health companies to provide inputs and information into global disease risk and mitigations.
Identify high risk events likely to be responsible for introducing emerging diseases onto farms. Refine and enhance the Rapid Response Program completed in 2017, which helps producers and veterinarians respond to and manage newly emerging diseases and to make it as responsive and efficient as possible by investigating epidemiologically distinct incidents of endemic disease outbreaks and automating and streamlining the rapid response investigation process. Improve communications so people know actionables in the event of an emerging disease, the communications pathway that will facilitate rapid response to an emerging disease, and the resources available to help detect, prepare, and respond to emerging diseases on the farm. Quickly research pathogens causing emerging disease outbreaks.
