Molecular Detection and Seroprevalence Study of Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus in Small Ruminants in Central Ethiopia. [PDF]

Vet Med Int
Background Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) is a severe, highly contagious, and fatal viral disease of small ruminants that causes significant production losses and mortality in Ethiopia. A cross‐sectional study was conducted from December 2021 to July 2022 to determine the seroprevalence of the disease in the study area.

Seroprevalence and Associated Risk Factors of Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus in Small Ruminants of Punjab, Pakistan. [PDF]

Transbound Emerg Dis
Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) is a highly contagious viral disease prevalent in sheep and goats, and causes significant economic losses. The study was conducted in 2024 in Punjab Province, Pakistan, to estimate the seroprevalence of the PPR virus (PPRV) and to analyze animal‐level risk factors in unvaccinated small ruminants. Over a 12‐month period,
