Earlier this year, highly pathogenic avian influenza infected dairy cattle in some states, though not in Missouri. Could the disease affect pigs?. Cory Bromfield, University of Missouri Extension swine veterinarian, said that it could happen, but to date only one natural case of H5N1 has been reported in the U.S., and that was in a feral hog. Low-pathogenic avian influenza has been detected in circulating swine strains five times from 1999 to 2015. Bromfield spoke about influenza in pigs at the recent Missouri Swine Health Symposium in Columbia.
