Abstract
Postweaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS) is a recently described disease of growing pigs characterized by progressive weight loss and chronic pneumonia. PMWS was first identified in western Canada in 1995, and has now been diagnosed in the US, Europe and Asia. Since 1999, 57 pigs from 23 farms of PMWS have been diagnosed in the National Veterinary Research and Quarantine Service (NVRQS). The most common age of onest was clustered around 6-week age.
