Epizootic Spread of Schmallenberg Virus among Wild Cervids, Belgium, Fall 2011
نویسندگان
چکیده
Schmallenberg virus was detected in cattle and sheep in northwestern Europe in 2011. To determine whether wild ruminants are also susceptible, we measured antibody seroprevalence in cervids (roe deer and red deer) in Belgium in 2010 and 2011. Findings indicated rapid spread among these deer since virus emergence ≈250 km away.

Epizootic hemorrhagic disease is an important disease of cervids, especially white-tailed deer. The causative virus is widespread among wild cervids in North America, where white-tailed deer are endemic, and periodically causes serious epidemics in wild and/or captive populations. Sporadic clinical cases and outbreaks have also been reported in other cervids, cattle, bison, yaks and other anima...
متن کاملSerological testing of Schmallenberg virus in Swedish wild cervids from 2012 to 2016
BACKGROUND Schmallenberg virus (SBV) first emerged in Europe in 2011, and in Sweden in late 2012. The virus was still circulating in parts of Europe in 2015. In recent testing, the virus has not been detected in Swedish domestic animals, indicating that it is no longer circulating in Sweden. It is not known if the virus has circulated and is still circulating in Swedish wild cervid populations ...
متن کاملSpread of Schmallenberg virus infections in the ruminants in Poland
The aim of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of Schmallenberg virus (SBV) specific antibodies in ruminants from 13 Polish provinces, sampled between January 2010 and August 2013. A total number of 1813 serum samples from cattle, sheep, goats, mouflon, wild and farmed cervids, and European bison were tested by ELISA for viral nucleoprotein antibodies. First SBV seropositive animals were i...
متن کاملSchmallenberg Virus Infection among Red Deer, France, 2010–2012
Schmallenberg virus infection is emerging in European domestic and wild ruminants. We investigated the serologic status of 9 red deer populations to describe virus spread from September 2010 through March 2012 among wildlife in France. Deer in 7 populations exhibited seropositivity, with an average seroprevalence of 20%.
