Sero‐Epidemiology and Molecular Detection of Bluetongue Virus in Goats in Bangladesh
Background Bluetongue (BT) is an arthropod‐transmitted, non‐contagious viral disease of domestic ruminants caused by bluetongue virus (BTV). The incidence of BT in Bangladesh is poorly understood, and there is no molecular evidence of BTV in the country.

Serological Investigation of Major Respiratory Viruses in Sheep in North Shewa, Ethiopia: Parainfluenza Virus, Bluetongue Virus, Maedi-Visna Virus and Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus. [PDF]
• High exposure to respiratory viruses in sheep • PI‐3 predominated, followed by PPRV, BTV and MVV • Mixed viral exposure was common, indicating frequent pathogen co‐circulation • Integrated surveillance, vaccination and husbandry are needed ABSTRACT Background Respiratory diseases significantly affect small ruminants, leading to considerable illness ...

Bluetongue Virus in Cervids in Piedmont During the 2024-2025 Outbreak. [PDF]
During the 2024–2025 bluetongue outbreak in Piedmont, 15 hunted cervids (12 red deer and three fallow deer) tested positive for BTV. These cases add to the 1066 infections detected in livestock, indicating the involvement of wild ungulates in viral circulation. Findings suggest the potential role of wild species as sentinel animals.

La fièvre catarrhale ovine (FCO), maladie virale transmise par des arthropodes, affecte les ovins et d’autres espèces d’ongulés non africains. Les lésions vasculaires associées à la maladie sont analogues à celles observées chez l’homme lors de fièvres hémorragiques virales, avec un infarctus caractéristique, une hémorragie, une fuite vasculaire, un ...

Epidemiological investigation of bluetongue virus antibodies in sheep in Iran
Aim: Bluetongue is a non-contagious, infectious viral disease of domestic and wild ruminants; which is believed to have originated in Africa. The epidemiology of Bluetongue virus infection is poorly defined in many parts of the world, including a wide ...

The epidemiology of bluetongue
The perception that bluetongue virus (BTV), once introduced to a country, would decimate its sheep industry, grew from the acceptance in the late 1950s that it was an emerging virus with Africa as its source. Epidemiological studies in the 1960s and early 1970s confirmed that the geographic distribution of BTV infections included regions of the world ...
