生猪流行性腹泻致使美国猪农损失惨重

Around 1.3 million hogs have been killed by the Porcine EpidemicDiarrhea Virus (PEDv) since the disease

was discovered in the US, according toa Reuters story. And there is evidence the virus — which humans

can't get — iscarried by wind.

According to TheOklahoman, Greg Stephens General Managerof Prestage Farms' hog farm in the Oklahoma

Panhandle said it experienced“substantial” losses in June as the virus spread through its herd.

根据路透社的报道，自从美国境内发生地一起生猪流行性腹泻以来，该国已经有超过130万头生猪死于该疾病。

报道同时还提到，该疫情的致病菌可以通过风进行传播，媒体曾经报道，因为该疫情，部分养殖户遭受到了极大地损失。
