- Title
Evaluation of the survival of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus in non-processed pig meat.

- Abstract
The article presents a study which aims to explore the viability of porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) in non-processed pig meat in the U.S. Despite of the limitations of the study, it was demonstrated that PRRSV can survive in fresh pork at refrigerator temperatures and that the manipulation of meat juice may increase the risk of viral spread from personnel to pigs.
