Abstract

Within 16 d, a small farrow-to-finish operation and 2 sow herds broke with the same strain of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) virus. Although no certainty could be obtained, based on the epidemiological investigation that was undertaken, we inferred that the most plausible source of contamination was aerosol, over a distance of at least 6.1 km.
