A close comparative study on the response of sheep and goats to experimental orf infection

Abstract
A comparative experimental study of the clinico-pathological and serological response of sheep and goats to orf infection was made. All infected animals depicted typical orf lesions and seroconverted. The clinical, serological, gross and histopathological responses were similar in both species. However, the disease span was longer in sheep than in goats. It was concluded that sheep could play an important role in maintenance of the virus in the environment.
