Soremouth
Contagious ecthyma, contagious pustular dermatitis, scabby mouth, orf
Common skin disease of sheep and goats.
Caused by a Parapox virus
Virus spreads through direct contact and
Extremely infectious
Dried scabs harbor virus
Soremouth
Animals that develop the disease usually
from 1 to 3 weeks
Soremouth
Treatment not effective on a flock basis
Treat lesions with antibiotic spray or cream (e.g.
ewes/does.
Prevention of Soremouth
Maintain a closed flock
Do not show
Vaccinate (only if you have
had disease)
In a hairless protected
area
Scabs will appear 1 to 3
days after vaccination
6 weeks before show
season
Orf
Sore mouth is
contagious to humans
(painful).
Need to be careful
Economic Impact
Presence of disease can
limit:
Trade
Export
Import of new breeds
Development of intensive
livestock production

History and
Geographic Distribution
1879: Goat pox
Norway
2nd Century AD:
Central and
Africa
Central Asia
The Middle East
Portions of India
Sheep pox
North
Morbidity/Mortality
Mortality up to 50% in fully susceptible flock
Mortality up to 100% in young animals
Symptoms severe in
Stressed animals
Animals with concurrent infections
Nave animals
Morbidity/Mortality
European sheep breeds highly
susceptible
Subclinical cases
No chronic carriers
Only sheep and goats affected
Not seen in wild ungulates
Animal Transmission
Close contact
Inhalation of aerosols
Abraded skin
Fomites
Insects (mechanical)
scabs

Clinical Signs
Incubation period: 4 to 21 days
Fever
Conjunctivitis
Depression, anorexia
Dyspnea, nasal or ocular discharge
Secondary bacterial
Clinical Signs
Papules forming into hard scabs
Lesions may cover body or be
the musculature
Differential Diagnosis
Contagious exthyma
Bluetongue
ruminants
Parasitic pneumonia
Caseous
lymphadenitis
Insect bites
Mycotic dermatitis
Sheep scab
Mange
Photsensitization
Sampling
Before collecting or sending any samples, the
Diagnosis
Clinical
Suspect in animals with characteristic skin
Treatment
Antibiotics for secondary infection
Good nursing care
Prevention
Non-endemic areas
Infected animals, fomites, and animal products may introduce
disease
Keep free with import restrictions
Ring vaccination
No carrier state
after recovery
Disinfection
Sodium hypochlorite
Phenol 2% for
Detergents
15 minutes
Vaccination
Vaccination can provide effective control in endemic areas
Killed vaccines do not provide long lasting immunity
Attenuated virus vaccines give immunity up to 2 years
Bluetongue Virus
Family Reoviridae
Genus Orbivirus
24 serotypes worldwide
6 serotypes isolated in the U.S.
Non-contagious
Insect-borne viral disease
Ruminants: Primary host is sheep
History
First described in South Africa
Broad distribution worldwide
Economic Impact
Trade restrictions
Imposed by BTV-free countries
Animals and animal products
Cost to U.S.
Greater impact on cattle industry
Reservoir for virus
$125 million per year
Lost trade and animal testing
Morbidity/Mortality: Sheep
Sheep
Severity of disease varies

Morbidity: as high as 100%
Mortality: usually 0 to 30%
Morbidity/Mortality:
Other Species
Cattle, goats
Morbidity: up to 5%

Bluetongue in Humans
Not a significant threat to humans
One human infection documented
Reasonable precautions should be taken
Quarantine
Quarantine and movement controls
Prevent spread of virus
Disinfection
Does not stop virus
Cleaning the premises

Scrapie
Sheep and goat disease
Recognized 250 years ago
Great Britain and W. Europe
1947 diagnosed in the U.S.
Incubation Period
Scrapie: Sheep 2-5 years
BSE: Cattle 2-8 years
CWD: Deer and elk 18 months
TME: Mink 7+ months
FSE: Feline unknown, most 4-9 years of age
Scrapie, CWD
Diagnosis
Post mortem: detection of prion
ruminant products
From countries known
to have BSE
