In 2000, swine influenza virus was isolated from feeder pigs on a large farm with nearly 10 000 animals.

The virus isolated from the chick embryos was tested against specific antisera and classified as possessing type H1 haemagglutinin.

The reactions of these sera with selected antigens showed that t
