Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2010
To the Editor: Malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) is an often lethal viral disease of susceptible biungulates from the Bovidae, Cervidae, and Suidae subfamilies. MCF in pigs has been associated with direct or indirect contact with sheep, which are the main reservoir of ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2) (1).

Retrovirology, 2010
Background Malignant Catarrhal Fever (MCF) is an often lethal viral disease of susceptible biungulates from Bovidae, Cervidae and Suidae subfamilies. Cases of porcine MCF have been associated with direct or indirect contact with sheep, the main reservoir of ovine herpesvirus-2 (OvHV-2). Pigs are terminal hosts and not considered in virus spread.

Transmission of Ovine Herpesvirus 2 in Lambs [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1998
ABSTRACT The pattern of acquisition of ovine herpesvirus 2 (OHV-2) infection in lambs was examined by a competitive-inhibition enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and PCR. Newborn lambs ( n = 118) did not exhibit antibody at birth. Viral DNA in peripheral blood leukocytes was detected in only 3% (

Identification of a Novel Astrovirus Associated with Bovine Respiratory Disease

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Astroviruses (AstVs) cause gastrointestinal disease in mammals and avians. Emerging evidence suggests that some AstVs have extraintestinal tissue tropism, with AstVs detected in the liver, kidney, central nervous system, and the respiratory tract variably associated with disease.

Malignant catarrhal fever in cattle in Spain

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 10, Issue 4, December 2022., 2022
Abstract We report a case of malignant catarrhal fever in cattle in a mixed herd (ovine/bovine). The case occurred in the Basque Country (north of Spain) in April 2021. The infection was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction in a calf that had developed signs consistent with the ‘head and eye’ form of the disease.
