BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s state veterinarian is ordering that all swine coming into the state have a health certificate declaring the animals have not been exposed to porcine epidemic diarrhea virus.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Dr. Susan Keller says the certificate also must declare the animals do not originate from a location that is known to be affected by PEDv.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Keller says the action is due to more cases in surrounding states and Canada. She says the mortality rate in young swine is up to 80 to 100 percent, and production losses are significant in older swine.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The health certificates must be signed by the owner of the animals and the issuing veterinarian.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 PEDv causes severe diarrhea, dehydration and vomiting in pigs.

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The weight restrictions guard against damage to roads made susceptible by the spring thaw. They’re lifted when roadbeds have stabilized enough to handle normal traffic.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The agency says load limits have been put into effect as early as mid-February some years.<\/p>\n
