متن کاملA survey of rift valley fever and associated risk factors among the one-humped camel (Camelus dromedaries) in Sudan
BACKGROUND Rift valley fever (RVF) is a mosquito-borne viral disease of domestic livestock and wild ruminants. In camels RVF may cause abortion among pregnant camels, but is most often asymptomatic among other camels. In this study, a seroepidemiological survey was conducted to determine the prevalence of RVFV antibodies and to identify the potential risk factors associated with RVFV seropositi...
متن کاملA need for One Health approach – lessons learned from outbreaks of Rift Valley fever in Saudi Arabia and Sudan
