Abstract :
[en] More than 400 small ruminant sera from Zaire were screened for antibodies to IBR, CHV2, BVD, bovine and ovine PI3, BRS and rinderpest viruses. Sera from local animals were negative for BVD, PI3 and rinderpest viruses: 8% of sera were positive for IBR virus, all with higher titers to CHV2; 31% of sera were positive to BRS virus.
