In California, Ohio and Michigan there are reports of dogs dying from an unknown disease.  Some veterinarians are suggesting it’s a pig virus called circovirus.

Basically the virus causes all the bacteria in your pets digestive system to attack your pet, which then bleeds to death on the inside.  Circovirus can destroy an entire pig farm in one week.  Birds are known to die from the virus.

There is no vaccine, there is no treatment.  One California TV station in Sacramento ignorantly reported that people should get their dog’s vaccines up to date.  Hello, no vaccine no treatment, are you people in the main streamer news media paying attention?

Back in April, the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases, as well as the U.S. CDC, reported the discovery of the new canine circovirus.

At this point the number of cases of dogs infected with the new virus are small, but that makes the job of scientists trying to study the disease harder.  Infectious disease researchers can’t get enough data until there’s a massive outbreak.
