Individual swine nasal samples from 102 agricultural exhibitions across six states were tested for five respiratory viruses using real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The number of swine exhibitions with ≥ 1 pig positive for each pathogen are shown by state. Out of the 102 exhibitions tested, at least one pathogen was detected in the pigs at 63 (61.8%). The pigs at 31 (30.4%) exhibitions were positive for more than one virus.

IAV: influenza A virus, PPIV1: porcine parainfluenza virus 1, PHEV: porcine hemagglutinating encephalomyelitis, PRRSv: porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus, IDV: influenza D virus.
