Q

Feline calicivirus infection epizootiology

A

shed: excreta
transmission by direct contact
long term carriers & continuously shedder cats (persisting inf. in tonsils and nasopharyngeal mucosa)
FIV infection facilitates infection

Q

Feline calicivirus infection pathogenesis

A
  • oronasal
  • pharynx
  • viraemia
  • lungs, mouth, throat, pads, joints (visceral organs, very virulent strains)
  • shedding in saliva, faeces & urine

A

low, but exciccosis, secondary bact inf.

16
Q

Feline calicivirus infection virulent systemic FCV CS

A

severe systemic syndrome
vasculitis, face & pad oedema, resp, icterus
more severe in adults (in vaccinated cats too)

17

Feline calicivirus infection DDx

A

Feline rhinotracheitis
bordetella
chlamydophila

19
Q

Ribavirin is a treatment of Feline calicivirus infection

A

false, in vitro efficient , in vivo toxic

20
Q

how long can maternal antibodies last for against Feline calicivirus infection

A

10-14wks

21
Q

Feline calicivirus infection vaccines

A

attenuated and inactivated vaccines
primary vacc: 9 and 12wks old
vaccine can protect for 1 yr
protects from signs but not infection

22
Q

Rabbit haemorrhagic disease occurence

A

worldwide

23
Q

Rabbit haemorrhagic disease pathogenesis

A

PO, air, conjunctival
viraemia
propagation in liver
vasculitis

24
Q

Rabbit haemorrhagic disease CS

A

liver dystrophy
thrombo-embolia in airways and visceral organs
haemorrhages

25
Q

Rabbit haemorrhagic disease mortality

A

up to 100%

26
Q

Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus 1

A

resistent in environment
cannot be propagated in cell culture
CS in older animals

mortality 70-90%

27
Q

Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus 2

A

rabbit and hare
longer incubation
younger rabbit
serologically different to 1

28
Q

Lagovirus europaeus

European brown hare syndrome virus

A

only hare
hepatic necrosis and death

29
Q

European brown hare syndrome CS

A

hyperacute: none, death
acute: foamy/ bloody discharge, mucosal cyanosis
terminal opisthotonus

30
Q

European brown hare syndrome shedding

A

via fecease & excreta- very contageous a few virion is sufficient for infection by conjunctival route

direct transmission

31
Q

Rabbit haemorrhagic disease (European brown hare syndrome ) diagnosis

A

notifiable
high mortality
RT-PCR

32
Q

Rabbit haemorrhagic disease (European brown hare syndrome ) treatment

A

no treatment
vaccination: inactivated vaccine at 4-5wks old, 1x/year
