A hog finishing barn in Oxford County has come down with
Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus.
It’s the 57th case this year.
The first was in January and there was a rash of outbreaks,
about 17 if the earliest ones attributed to nursery-pig rations, during the
winter months.
The pace of outbreaks ground to a halt during the summer,
mainly because the virus cannot survive hot summer days.
