Richard Webby, a virologist at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital who studies influenza in animals and birds for the World Health Organization, said that pigs were the source of the 2009-2010 H1N1 influenza pandemic and are also considered the source of many other types of influenza.

He added that detecting the virus in a small farm makes the infection situation in pigs less concerning than if it were detected in a commercial pig farm.

"I don't think there's an increased concern about infection levels, however if this virus starts spreading in pigs, then the risk of an epidemic will certainly increase," said Richard Webby.
