Swine Vesicular Disease Virus (SVDV) is a virus that primarily affects pigs, causing a disease characterized by vesicular lesions on the snout, tongue, and feet. It belongs to the family Picornaviridae and is closely related to other viruses that cause similar symptoms in animals. SVDV is not harmful to humans, but it can lead to significant economic losses in the pig farming industry due to decreased productivity and trade restrictions. The disease is typically transmitted through direct contact between infected and healthy pigs or through contaminated feed and equipment. Surveillance and control measures are essential to prevent outbreaks, as SVDV can spread rapidly in pig populations. Vaccination is not commonly used, so biosecurity practices are crucial for managing the risk of infection.
