Dr. Karine Talbot: Biosecurity and Swine Disease Containment | Ep. 187

To honor the International Women's Day, we have prepared a very special episode for you! This week, I had a great conversation with Dr. Karine Talbot, who is currently the Director of Animal Health at HyLife Ltd., Canada. From the basics of biosecurity to strategies for making it work as effectively as possible, she shares with us her vast practical experience with biosecurity protocols on pig farms in this episode. Additionally, Dr. Talbot brings her excellent perspective on the secret behind a good biosecurity program: people coming together and knowing what they are doing. Quite interesting, isn’t it?

"Too often we keep asking who is responsible for biosecurity on pig farms. My answer is "everyone": you can't have great biosecurity without everyone's compliance". - Dr. Karine Talbot
