| − | *Causes '''Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR)'''
| |
| − | *Highly infectious URT disease of cattle
| |
| − | *High morbidity, low mortality
| |
| − | *Aerosol transmission - requires close contact between animals
| |
| − | *BHV-1 infects the respiratory mucosal epithelial cells (intranuclear inclusion eosinophilic inclusion bodies)from nasal mucosa down to bronchioles
| |
| − | **leading to neutrophilic inflammation of varying severity.... serous -> catarrhal -> purulent nasal discharge, sneezing, coughing.
| |
| − | **with secondary bacterial infection (eg: Pasturella spp., Mycoplasma spp., Fusobacterium necrophorum) can lead to fibrinous to necrotizing inflammation; mucosal sloughing, ulceration... pyrexia, dyspnoea ... inhalation pneumonia... death.
| |
| − | *Clinical signs include coughing, discharge, lacrimation, and increased respiratory rate.
| |
| − | *Clinical disease most severe in young calves - can develop mucosal ulcerative lesions in the oesophagus and forestomachs and viraemia with multiorgan infection.
