- Abstract
The article discusses the viral disease outbreak caused by peste des petits ruminants (PPR) virus and the orf virus which affected a herd of goats in Shahjahanpur, India. The affected goats manifested purulent nasal and ocular discharges as well as severe diarrhea and pyrexia. The postmortem examination conducted on two goats revealed lesions common to PPR infection, pneumonic changes in the lungs, and hemorrhages in the lining of the trachea.
