Clinical signs, clinical pathology and outcomes in horses infected naturally with equine encephalosis virus

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Equine encephalosis (EE) is caused by an Orbivirus from the family Sedoreoviridae and is thus similar to African horse sickness (AHS) and Bluetongue viruses (BTV). These viruses are transmitted by Culicoides midges. Equine encephalosis can infect horses, donkeys and zebras sub‐clinically while only horses develop clinical disease ...
