This paper summarizes data from 30 farms that had undergone porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) elimination using test and removal. Over a subsequent 12-month monitoring period, 28 of 30 farms remained PRRSV-negative. Nucleic acid sequencing of isolates recovered from the re-infected farms identified an unrelated virus.
