PCV-2 associated disease and related losses occur commonly in high health status herds. With the advent of PCV-2 vaccines, these losses can be successfully reduced. In this study, there was a significant reduction (48%) in the mortality rate of the vaccinated pigs whencompared to the non-vaccinated pigs. Vaccination was conducted at day 21. In the vaccinated group, mortality was reduced from 5.25 % to 2.73%. This data indicates that the implementation of a PCV2 vaccination program can reduce the mortality rate of high health status pigs in Malaysia.
