Etiology • Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is an enveloped, single-stranded RNA virus within the family Arteriviridae. Other members of the family include equine arteritis virus, lactate dehydrogenase-elevating virus (LDV), and simian hemorrhagic fever virus. • PRRSV emerged almost simultaneously in the late 1980s in the U.S. and Germany, causing severe reproductive and respiratory disease in pigs. • Highly pathogenic PRRSV (HP-PRRSV) was first described in China in 2006, following an outbreak in which 2 million pigs were affected and 400,000 died. The virus originated from a type 2 (North American) PRRSV already circulating in China. New HP-PRRSVs continue to emerge and highly pathogenic forms of the virus are now dominant in China.
