Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSv), swine influenza virus (SIV) and Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (MHYO) are among the most common agents involved in the porcine respiratory disease complex. They are also among the most significant infectious conditions contributing to substantial losses in the pig industry. Financial losses are mainly attributed to increased mortality rates, increased feed costs, reduced growth performance and increased costs for vaccination and disease control.
