A South Dakota swine herd that has a disease clinically diagnosed as pseudorabies by a veterinarian, has a positive reaction to an official pseudorabies test listed in § 12:68:17:11, has pseudorabies confirmed by other laboratory diagnosis, or has animals vaccinated for pseudorabies must be quarantined to the farm premises by the veterinarian making the diagnosis or by an agent of the board.
The quarantine may be released by one negative official pseudorabies test of all breeding swine over six months of age. The test may be administered no sooner than 30 days after the last known reactor or vaccinate has been removed. A permit to ship quarantined hogs directly to slaughter must be obtained from the local veterinarian or an agent of the board.
For sale of slaughter swine only, the quarantine may be released 30 days after discontinuing all pseudorabies vaccine use and receiving a negative differential test that includes all breeding swine and monitored percentage of feeding swine.
