Emerg Infect Dis. 2010 Apr;16(4):696-8. doi: 10.3201/eid1604.090937.

Abstract

Porcine kobuvirus was first identified in early 2007 in Hungary. Originally thought to be confined to the intestine, almost 2 years later the virus was found in the blood of clinically healthy pigs on the same farm. Porcine kobuvirus may be widely distributed on pig farms worldwide.
