An outbreak of hog cholera
the first in the United
States in more than a year
has been confirmed in the
Texas panhandle, the U. S.
Department of Agriculture
(USDA) reported.
USDA animal health of
ficials warned hog farmers
throughout the nation but
particularly in the southwest
—to remain alert for signs of
this costly and often fatal
virus disease, which has the
potential for rapid spread.

Hog cholera has been the
object of a highly successful
state-federal eradication
campaign that began in late
1962. The last previous cases
of the disease were reported
in Puerto Rico on May 4,
1974, and in Mississippi on
February 7,1974. Prior to the

start of the eradication
program, the disease af
fected an estimated 5,000 to
6,000 swine herds annually
and cost hog producers
around $5O million a year.
The current outbreak was
found in a herd of about 170
hogs owned by Louis
Woodford and located near
Hereford, Tex., in Deaf
Smith county, according to
officials of USDA’s Animal
and Plant Health Inspection
Service (APHIS }. The
diagnosis was confirmed at
the APHIS Veterinary
Services Laboratories in
Ames, la., from tests on
specimens which had been
flown by courier from both
the hog farm and from the
Texas A&M University
veterinary diagnostic
laboratory, where earlier
tests had indicated the
presence of hog cholera.
The affected swine herd
has been placed under
quarantine by the Texas
Animal Health Commission.
Additional state and federal
quarantines will be placed as
necessary to control the
disease. Contact with in
fected or exposed swine is
one of the primary ways hog
cholera is spread to healthy
hogs.
A state-federal task force
is being established in the
area to eliminate the disease
and investigate the source of
the outbreak and any
possible spread. The infected
herd will be destroyed and
the owner will be in
demnified for the loss of his
hogs.
Signs of hog cholera in
clude loss of appetite, fever
and hogs that are just “sick
all over.” Other signs in
clude abortions and ab
normal death losses among
young pigs. Hog farmers are
urged to contact their local
veterinarian or state or
federal animal health of
ficials immediately if they
suspect hog cholera.
