Risk Factor Assessment, Sero-Prevalence, and Genotyping of the Virus That Causes Foot-and-Mouth Disease on Commercial Farms in Ethiopia from October 2018 to February 2020

Fanos Tadesse Woldemariyam, Annebel De Vleeschauwer, Nato Hundessa, Ayelech Muluneh et autres

A cross-sectional serological, active outbreak search and a questionnaire-based survey were carried out to investigate foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) sero-epidemiology in Ethiopia. The circulating serotype of the FMD virus (FMDV) was identified, and the knowledge regarding FMD and husbandry practices was assessed. Using …

Experimental evidence of mechanical lumpy skin disease virus transmission by Stomoxys calcitrans biting flies and Haematopota spp. horseflies

Charlotte Sohier, Andy Haegeman, Laurent Mostin, Ilse De Leeuw et autres

Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is a devastating disease of cattle characterized by fever, nodules on the skin, lymphadenopathy and milk drop. Several haematophagous arthropod species like dipterans and ticks are suspected to play a role in the transmission of LSDV. Few conclusive …

FMD vaccine matching: Inter laboratory study for improved understanding of r1 values

Tom Eric Willems, Annebel De Vleeschauwer, Mariano Pérez-Filgueira, Yanmin Li et autres

Foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) is a highly variable RNA virus existing as seven different serotypes. The antigenic variability between and within serotypes can limit the cross-reactivity and therefore the in vivo cross-protection of vaccines. Selection of appropriate vaccine strains is crucial in …

Lumpy skin disease: scientific and technical assistance on control and surveillance activities

Paolo Calistri, Kris DeClercq, Annebel De Vleeschauwer, Simon Gubbins et autres

The duration of the vaccination campaign sufficient to eliminate lumpy skin disease (LSD) mainly depends on the vaccination effectiveness and coverage achieved. By using a spread epidemiological model, assuming a vaccination effectiveness of 65%, with 50% and 90% coverage, 4 and 3 …

Influenza in birds, pigs and humans: how strong is the species barrier?

Kristien Van Reeth, Annebel De Vleeschauwer, Constantinos S. Kyriakis

The recent epizootics of the highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza in poultry and the occasional infections of humans and other mammals, including pigs and felines, have alerted the international scientific community. New questions over the interspecies transmission of influenza viruses have been …

Efficient Transmission of Swine‐Adapted but Not Wholly Avian Influenza Viruses among Pigs and from Pigs to Ferrets

Annebel De Vleeschauwer, Sjouke Van Poucke, Debby Braeckmans, Jan Van Doorsselaere et autres

BACKGROUND: Pigs are considered to be intermediate hosts for the transmission of avian influenza viruses (AIVs) between birds and humans, but the transmissibility of AIVs among pigs and from pigs to other mammals remains largely unexplored. METHODS: In an initial study, we …
