The Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship has successfully completed the Pseudorabies response protocol outlined in the United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service’s program standards. The second round of testing did not reveal any additional cases, confirming the Pseudorabies virus did not spread.
Less than 10 swine production facilities remained under quarantine following the detection of Pseudorabies virus in a small commercial swine facility on April 30, 2026. The affected swine farms have completed their second round of Pseudorabies testing; all tests were negative, and the quarantined farms have been released. Producers within the control area can now resume routine animal movements.
