SDRS (Swine Disease Reporting System) Podcast: Recent Episodes

Swine Disease Reporting System

The Swine Disease Reporting System (SDRS) consists of multiple projects that aggregate data from participating veterinary diagnostic laboratories (VDLs) in the United States of America. Through this podcast, our investigators and invited guests summarize the key information on endemic and emerging diseases affecting the swine population in the USA, assisting veterinarians and producers to make informed decisions on disease prevention, detection, and management.
