Porcine coronavirus HKU15 (PorCoV HKU15) is a coronavirus that infects the cells lining the small intestine of a pig, causing porcine diarrhea diseases, a condition of severe diarrhea and dehydration. Older pigs mostly get sick and lose weight after being infected, whereas newborn piglets usually die within first several days of contracting the virus. Similar to Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, PorCoV HKU15 cannot be transmitted to humans, nor contaminate the human food supply.
It was first discovered in a surveillance study in Hong Kong, China,[1] but it has not been reported to be associated with porcine diarrhea until February of 2014. In February of 2014, PorCoV HKU15 was identified in pigs with clinical diarrhea disease in Ohio of United States. It was first named as swine deltacoronavirus.[2]. But its correct species name is porcine coronavirus HKU15. The complete genome of one US strain has been published.[3]. Since then, it has been reported in Canada. [4]
