Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Virology
  • Infectious Diseases of Swine

Background:

  • Swine vesicular disease (SVD) is a notifiable viral disease impacting pigs globally.
  • First identified in Italy in 1966, SVD has since spread across Europe and Asia.
  • The causative agent is SVD virus, a porcine variant of coxsackievirus B5, belonging to the Enterovirus genus.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent scientific findings on Swine Vesicular Disease (SVD).
  • To discuss the SVD virus, its classification, and clinical significance.
  • To highlight the economic impact of SVD due to trade restrictions.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent scientific findings on SVD.
  • Analysis of SVD virus classification and characteristics.
  • Examination of clinical presentation and epidemiological data.

Main Results:

  • SVD virus is clinically mild in pigs, rarely causing fatalities.
  • Clinical signs of SVD are indistinguishable from Foot-and-Mouth Disease.
  • SVD presence leads to severe international trade restrictions for pigs and pork products.

Conclusions:

  • Despite mild clinical signs, SVD poses a significant threat to international swine trade.
  • Accurate diagnosis and disease control are crucial for managing SVD.
  • Continued research on SVD virus and disease is essential for effective management strategies.
