On May 8, 2017, Manitoba's Chief Veterinary Officer (CVO) confirmed positive test results for PEDv from another sow operation in southeast Manitoba.

This farm is within 5 km of the two infected farms that were confirmed PED positive on May 2 and May 6 respectively.

Manitoba Agriculture’s Emergency Operation Centre is continuing to operate, assisting the affected producer and conducting a full disease investigation.

Biocontainment measures have been implemented at the site and plans for animal care and cleaning are underway.

Producers within a 5-km radius of the infected site and contacts with the infected site have been alerted, and are monitoring their herds and collecting samples for testing.

All veterinarians with clients within the 5 km area have been made aware of the site's location.
 
The three affected producers during this outbreak have made communication possible by signing this Sharing of Information Waiver. Manitoba Pork encourages all producers to sign this waiver and provide it to their herd veterinarian and Manitoba Pork ahead of a disease outbreak. This enables quick sharing of information to prevent further spread, as well as more comprehensive support to the affected producer.
