LPC live vaccine has been used for the prevention for many decades. However, its efficacy in young pigs will be interfered tremendously by maternal antibody, which derives from vaccinated dams. Subsequently, the antibody level in young pigs depends on the antibody level of sows. Currently there are 3 different vaccination programs have been recommended for sows.
