Helping Albertans recover from wildfires

Wildfires in May and June burned more than 1.4 million hectares and resulted in about 38,000 Albertans being evacuated from their homes. Because of the actions of thousands of firefighters from Alberta as well as from across Canada and the world, no lives were lost and most of the wildfires are now under control.

Alberta’s government has approved a $175-million Disaster Recovery Program to help Alberta communities recoup costs related to the wildfire response and recovery.

Video: The Future of Swine Health: Advanced Diagnostics and Customized Vaccines


In this interview, Jay Halliday of Vaxxinova US discusses how advanced diagnostic technologies are helping pork producers better identify, monitor, and respond to disease challenges within their herds.
Unlike traditional diagnostic methods, WGS enables the identification of multiple pathogens within a sample, supports surveillance of emerging variants, helps evaluate feedback programs, and improves isolate selection for autogenous vaccine development.
The conversation also explores the importance of customized vaccine solutions and the role of adjuvants such as Amplivac™ and Trigen™ in enhancing immune responses against key swine pathogens.
