Today on the show, we are joined by Dr. Glen Duizer from Manitoba's Office of the Chief Veterinarian. He's here today to talk about Seneca Valley Virus, a disease with broad impacts on the hog sector, but one that looks like other, more dangerous diseases. Dr. Duizer chats with us about Manitoba's response to SVV, what producers should watch out for, and how SVV quacks like a duck without being a duck.
