Ontario Has PED Case Confirmed For Second Time In Two Weeks

After an eight-month PED-free streak in Ontario pigs came to an end two weeks ago, Ontario pork has confirmed another case.

The confirmation from the organization came yesterday after a March 7th test proved positive.

Ontario Pork says the viral disease was detected in a finishing barn in Middlesex County.

The case is the 101st confirmed in the province since the start of 2014.

The previous positive test came from a finishing barn in nearby Haldimand-Norfolk County.
