As a result of the significant disruption that is being caused by the COVID-19 pandemic we are very aware that many researchers will have difficulty in meeting the timelines associated with our peer review process during normal times. Please do let us know if you need additional time. Our systems will continue to remind you of the original timelines but we intend to be highly flexible at this time.

Porcine Health Management would like to thank all of the referees that have participated in reviewing manuscripts for the journal in 2019. We deeply appreciate your time and effort in providing your expert feedback!
