"clinical signs are blisters around nose and feet, lameness, those clinical signs look just like foot and mouth disease" generally, state veterinarians only see a handful of cases a year. in 2015 they've seen more than 100. "something changed in the virus that made it more transmisable. we had 100 cases in 6 months, and then none recent weeks." that news- hilleman says- is definitely a good thing. "we dont need that

"you have to get trucks coming in and out, its just a far reaching" he knows if he see's something unusual, state and federal officials need to get invovled. "we have a good relationship with our vet. if we have an issue we call him" the difference between one virus to the next could be industry altering and herd halting. "you hope if theres a vaccine it works, and if there isn't you dont get it." sabrina: if those symptoms of the senecavirus make an appearance, contact your vet immediately, they'll send tests to state and federal labs. iowa state says they try to return results within 2 to 3 days. as a reminder, senecavirus cannot infect humans and doesnt make pork less safe
