Abstract
As one of the most significant swine diseases, in recent years, swine influenza (SI) has had an immense impact on public health and has raised extensive public concerns in China. Swine are predisposed to both avian and human influenza virus infections, between that and/or swine influenza viruses, genetic reassortment could occur. This analysis aims at introducing the history of swine influenza virus, the serological epidemiology of swine influenza virus infection, the clinical details of swine influenza, the development of vaccines against swine influenza and controlling the situation of swine influenza in China. Considering the elaborate nature of swine influenza, a more methodical surveillance should be further implemented.
