One of the last things that they want to happen with the dairy virus is 
for it to get into the pig population because of the possibility of 
recombining with swine flu.  It happened in Oregon, and they are still 
in denial that they have infected dairies in the state.

Milk products were not tested by the FDA that were produced in Oregon, 
but in other states when poultry flocks go down there are infected 
dairies in the area infecting those poultry flocks.  They are trying to 
blame migrating birds, but those birds are going south not back up into 
the northern states.

The USDA has already sequenced the swine isolates, but they did not 
release the sequence information, just claimed that the two mutations 
that they have been looking for were not in the virus sequenced.  The 
problem is that those two mutations have already occurred in the virus 
that normally circulates among pigs.  You do not need the two mutations 
if you can pick them up by coinfection.
