Emerg Infect Dis 15:2025-8. 2009..Approximately 33% were infected transplacentally; some had compromised health. In all infected calves, viral load decreased after birth; no evidence of persistent infection was found...
Clinical signs and pathology shown by British sheep and cattle infected with bluetongue virus serotype 8 derived from the 2006 outbreak in northern EuropeK E Darpel
Institute for Animal Health, Ash Road, Pirbright, Woking, Surrey
Vet Rec 161:253-61. 2007..Postmortem examinations revealed pathology in the cattle that was more severe than suggested by the mild clinical signs, but the pathological and clinical findings in the sheep were more consistent...
