Over the years, more influenza strains have infiltrated the swine herd. It’s now at the point where it’s endemic to some states and breeding herds just have to live with it. This creates extra costs and also immunocompromises those infected pigs. That’s why Merck Animal Health decided to create the Influenza Playbook. Dr. Brett O’Brien, technical services veterinarian, said the swine industry is at a critical point to get a better handle on flu management.
O’Brien said the Influenza Playbook contains a comprehensive guide on how to quickly and efficiently get rid of flu infections.
O’Brien said the book contains a wide range of contemporary information from Merck and other industry-leading flu experts.
