Lumpy Skin Disease Virus treatment in cattle (LSDV)

 Lumpy Skin Disease Virus treatment in cattle (LSDV)

Lumpy skin disease is a viral disease that affects cattle. It is transmitted by blood-feeding insects, such as certain species of flies and mosquitoes, or ticks.

It causes fever, nodules on the skin and can also lead to death, especially in animals that that have not previously been exposed to the virus. Control options include vaccinations and culling of infected animals.

Lumpy skin disease can lead to significant economic losses. The disease is present in many African countries. In 2012, it spread from the Middle East to south-east Europe, affecting EU Member States (Greece and Bulgaria) and several other countries in the Balkans. 



What is the current status of Lumfi skin's disease worldwide? 

Lumphi skin's disease has been considered endemic in Africa for a long time since it was first discovered in Zambia, Africa in 1929. However, it first started in Israel outside Africa in 1989 and spread throughout the Middle East (2012), then spread through Turkey (2013) to southeastern Europe located in the Balkans (Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, etc., 2015).In addition, it was reported in September 2019 in Russia (2015), India, and Bangladesh as well as in Xinjiang, China, which is bordering Kazakhstan, and gradually moved eastward. As an outbreak was reported in the Russian Far East in September 20, the risk of domestic influx has increased.  In addition, outbreaks were reported in Nepal ('20.7), Vietnam ('20.11), Myanmar ('20.11), Hong Kong (wild cattle, '20.11.), and Sri Lanka ('21.1.) Due to the tropical climate, the range of occurrence of Lumfiskin's disease is predicted to be wider.
