Porcine Parvo Virus (PPV), a single-stranded-DNA virus, has been known for over 50 years and is probably the most important cause of reproductive failure worldwide1. For years PPV is controlled by vaccination in order to prevent the classical clinical signs of still born piglets and mummies that vary in size and stage of mummification. Apart from this, PPV infections also potentially cause return to estrus and birth of too small litter sizes1. Within PPV there is evolution2 and over time in Europe PPV strains are shifting from cluster A to cluster D3. Recently evidence for the presence of a cluster D strain in the Netherlands was found. This is a summary of the case and consequent findings.
Swine disease elimination programs for Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae are commonly applied in the North American swine industry and may include the aerosolization of medium containing lung tissue to achieve population exposure prior to start.

Disease control continues to be one of the most challenging areas for pig producers and swine veterinarians around the world. Threats such us the entrance of a strain of a virus that is endemic in a region (i.e. PRRS) or the emergence of a highly virulent transboundary disease (i.e ASFV) are important factors that make effective biosecurity one of the number one measures that protect any swine production investment.
