question="A herd of pigs is presented for various clinical signs. The neonatal piglets in the herd present with intention tremors, and the newly weaned pigs have diarrhea, dyspnea, icterus, and scabby skin lesions. Necropsy of one animal leads you to the diagnosis of porcine multisystemic wasting disease caused by a circovirus type II infection. What is the best treatment option for this herd?"
choice2="Depopulate and repopulate the herd"
choice1="No treatment is necessary; the herd will clear the infection on their own with time"
choice4="Aggressive antibiotic therapy in their food source"
choice3="Provide better ventilation in the facilities to prevent the spread of the disease to other pigs"
correctchoice="2"
feedback2="'''Correct!''' The correct answer is to depopulate and repopulate the herd. Porcine multisystemic wasting disease is also known as porcine dermatitis nephropathy syndrome. It is believed to be caused by a circovirus type II, but this has yet to be proven. Weaned pigs have diarrhea, pneumonia, icterus, and scabby skin. Gross necropsy findings of the weaned pigs include atrophy of the liver, spleen, kidneys, and thymus, as well as lymphadenopathy. Antibiotic therapy will help with secondary bacterial infections, but the best overall treatment option is to depopulate the herd, disinfect the facility, and then repopulate the herd. Another circovirus (type I) can infect neonatal piglets causing intention tremors.[[Porcine Circoviruses|WikiVet Article: Porcine Circoviruses]]"
