“…The disease then expresses itself in epizootic outbreaks that appear with a seasonal frequency. These results are in agreement with other studies (Singh et al, 2004;Folitse et al, 2017), who observed higher prevalence in the dry season. This increase could be related to animal movement, animals flocked from one place to another that favor the spread of the virus (Dhar et al, 2002).…”

The objective of this study was to analyze the epidemiological occurrence of Peste des petits ruminants in sheep and goat in Palestine during 2005-2017. Data were collected from the annual agricultural census released by the Palestinian central bureau of statistics and the reports of world organization for animal health, submitted by the general directorate of veterinary services and animal health between 2005 and 2017. The study indicated that Peste des petits ruminants is enzootic in Palestine, reported in each year of the study period. The incidence rate ranged from 1.78 to 14.36% with an average of 6.39% per year and per 104 animals. The average morbidity, morbidity and case fatality rate were 8.89%, 2.89%, and 33.57% respectively. Temporal analysis obtained that Peste des petits ruminants is more epizootic in the dry season between April and August with a significant peak on June. The Peste des petits ruminants vaccination rate in Palestine was low and not well organized, ranged from 0.77-34.39% with an average rate of 9%. The appropriate data recording, improving owner awareness, expand the use of the Peste des petits ruminants vaccine and a systematic disease monitoring program are required to control the spread of the disease.

“…The disease is endemic in the Arabian Pennsylvania, the Middle East, Indian subcontinent, Turkey, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Bhutan as well as Bangladesh (Muhammad et al, 2010). The World Organization for Animal Health has recently been identified PPR as a serious notifiable and economically important transboundary viral disease of sheep and goats to jeopardize with high morbidity and mortality (Diallo et al, 2007;Folitse et al, 2017;Birindwa et al, 2017). Clinically, the disease is characterized by high fever, oculo-nasal discharges, necrotizing and erosive stomatitis, diarrhoea, and dyspnea bronchopneumonia followed by either death or recovery from the disease (Balamurugan et al, 2012;Sharma et al, 2012;Jaisree et al, 2018).…”

Objective: The research work was aimed at assessing the prevalence and risk factors of Peste-des-petits-ruminants (PPR) in goats in some selected areas of Bangladesh along with a comparison of different hemato-biochemical parameters of PPR infected goats. Materials and methods: A presumptive diagnosis of PPR was done based on clinical signs and symptoms. A structured record keeping sheet was used for the estimation of prevalence and risk factors of PPR in goat. A total of 103 blood samples were collected randomly and analyzed for hemato-biochemical parameters using automated hemo-analyzer. Results: Out of 103 cases, Black Bengal (59%) and young goats aging minimum-12 months (43.85%) were recognized as highly susceptible to PPR disease. Strong association was found among all the three factors such as age, breed and sex (RR>1). All the values of hematological parameters such as TEC, TLC, Hb, PCV, and DLC were decreased in PPR affected goat as compared to healthy goats except lymphocyte counts, which was increased significantly (P=0.00). The amount of total protein (3.15 gm/L) and albumin (16.88 gm/L) were reduced drastically in PPR affected goats. Conclusion: The lymphocyte content in blood was significantly increased where as the total protein and albumin percent were decreased in the goats affected with PPR. Moreover, this variation in blood profile due to PPR virus infected in goat might be a good indicator in this disease diagnosis.

“…Overall prevalence in this study was estimated as 15.17% (95% ) in goats and 9.17% (95% CI: 9.02-9.32) in sheep. In comparison to other PPR endemic country prevalence in Ghana was recorded as 6.84% and in Laos 1.7%, whereas in Djibouti prevalence was 6% in small ruminants (Burns et al, 2019;Moumin and Moussa, 2018;Folitse et al, 2017). In parts of Egypt the overall morbidity of PPR was found 54.2% which is higher than the estimated prevalence in Bangladesh (Elhaig et al, 2018).…”

Peste des petits ruminant (PPR), considered as goat plague is the most fatal infectious viral disease for small ruminants. This disease is endemic in many parts of the world including Bangladesh causes extensive loss on livestock and economy. This study was conducted to estimate the prevalence of PPR and this is the first meta-analysis on PPR as per authors knowledge in Bangladesh. Articles published during the years 2000 to 2019 on the topic PPR within three electronic databases were used for prevalence estimation by random effect meta-analysis model. A total of 39 articles were finally included in the model for prevalence estimation of goat and sheep. 1589784 goat and 142036 sheep were included in the study for analysis. Analysis showed prevalence of PPR was 15.17% (95% CI: 15.11-15.22) and 9.17% (95% CI: 9.02-9.32), respectively for goat and sheep. As PPR is affecting small ruminants in variable percentage in different districts of Bangladesh, this study estimates the cumulative prevalence of Bangladesh. This study may act as a baseline for taking effective control strategy of PPR in Bangladesh through proper allocation of resources on a priority basis.
