The Pig Health Control Association launched a control scheme for Aujeszky's disease in Britain in January 1978. Participating herds must not show clinical signs suggestive of Aujeszky's disease and must be serum-sampled every six months for the absence of antibodies. Importations are allowed only from listed herds, or through hysterectomy or hysterotomy, embryo transfer, or artificial insemination (the donor animals in each case having been serologically screened beforehand). During the subsequent eight years, 103 herds have qualified, and at the end of 1985, 49 herds (average size 249 sows) were listed. Despite a high degree of inter-herd stock movements, no clinical or serological evidence of Aujeszky's disease has occurred, and the disease has not arisen in any herd established from the listed herds. During the same period, Aujeszky's disease was spreading in Britain and an eradication programme began in March 1983. By the end of 1985, 502 herds not on the Pig Health Control Association's scheme comprising 421,825 pigs had been slaughtered, together with 259 serologically positive animals in 69 other herds. The Pig Health Control Association's register has provided a safe source of stock.
猪健康控制协会于1978年1月在英国发起了一项针对奥耶斯基氏病的控制计划。参与计划的猪群不得出现提示奥耶斯基氏病的临床症状，并且必须每六个月进行血清采样以检测是否存在抗体。仅允许从列出的猪群进口，或通过子宫切除或剖腹取胎、胚胎移植或人工授精（每种情况下的供体动物均已预先进行血清学筛查）。在随后的八年中，有103个猪群符合条件，到1985年底，列出了49个猪群（平均规模为249头母猪）。尽管猪群之间的种猪流动程度很高，但未出现奥耶斯基氏病的临床或血清学证据，并且在从列出的猪群建立的任何猪群中都未出现该病。同一时期，奥耶斯基氏病在英国蔓延，1983年3月开始了根除计划。到1985年底，已屠宰了502个未参加猪健康控制协会计划的猪群，共421,825头猪，以及其他69个猪群中的259头血清学阳性动物。猪健康控制协会的登记册提供了一个安全的种猪来源。
