Fever, diarrhea and anemia are signs of the Infectious Bursal Disease
t
Vaccines provide high level of protection against all IBDV strains
f
Clinical manifestations of infectious bursal disease are seen mainly in chicken between the age of 3 and 6 weeks
t
Moderately attenuated (“hot”) IBDV vaccines are used for the immunization of young chicken without yolk immunity
f
The infectious bursitis virus has more than one virulence variants
t
The infectious bursitis virus causes anaemia
t
The infectious bursitis virus can be isolated on CAM
t
There is no vaccine available against infectious bursitis virus
f
The resistance of infectious bursitis virus is very high
t
The infectious bursitis virus spreads by mosquitoes
f
IBDV causes immunosuppression in chicken between 2-8 weeks of age
t
By disinfection of the eggshell we can prevent IBDV infection
t
Infectious bursal disease causes severe illness, mainly in waterfowl
f
The most frequent sign of infectious bursal disease is lameness
f
Only attenuated live vaccines are effective against infectious bursal disease
f
Several antigenic and virulence variants of infectious bursal disease virus are known
t
The infectious bursitis is usually seen in 3 to 8 weeks-old flocks
t
The most frequent sign of infectious bursal disease is lameness due to the inflammation of the subtendinal bursae
f
The infectious bursitis virus is inactivated within 1-2 days in the environment
f
A frequent sign of the infectious bursitis is encephalitis
f
The infectious bursitis virus does not cause any damage in chickens under the age of two weeks
f
Influenzaviruses have segmented genome
t
HPAI and LPAI strains differ in the number of basal amino acids in the HA protein
t
HA protein of influenza viruses is responsible for the attachment to the cell
t
The M2 protein of influenza viruses serves as an ion channel important in the decapsidation
t
Antigenic drift means serials of point mutations in the HA and NA genes
t
The NA protein in the influenza virus is responsible for the release from the infected cells
t
Enzymatic cleavage of the HA protein is needed for the influenza virus penetration into the cell
t
Genetic reassortment of human and animal influenza viruses result in the occurrence of new human influenza strains
t
Bats have an important role in the epidemiology of influenza
f
Antigenic shift is behind the influenza pandemics
t
Influenza viruses are classified into genera by their HA and NA proteins
f
Influenza causes persistent infection in donkey
f
The serotype of influenza viruses is determined by their HA and NA proteins
t
The influenza viruses cause respiratory signs in sea mammals
t
The host range of influenza virus is determined by the NA protein
f
The bird to human host switch of influenza virus is mediated by swine
t
The main host of influenza is the swine
f
In humans inactivated vaccines are used for the immunisation against influenza
t
Antigenic drift is behind the seasonal influenza epidemics
t
Antigenic shift means the reassortment of the influenzavirus genome segments
t
Influenzaviruses are sensitive to drying out
t
For the in vitro propagation of influenza viruses embryonated eggs is used
t
The high virulence of some influenza A viruses is the result of mutations in the HA gene
t
Dogs are susceptible to horse origin influenza strains
t
The HPAI strains can cause CNS Signs
t
HPAI causes blood vessel damages and generalised infections
t
The HPAI strains are usually developed from the H5 and H7 influenza viruses
t
The LPAI causes immunosuppression
t
Cat is susceptible to human seasonal influenza
f
HPAI strains are mutations of LPAI strains
t
HPAI strains belong into a certain haemagglutinin types
f
Influenzas Causes enteric symptoms in human
f
Anti-neuraminidase drugs inhibit the decapsidation of influenza viruses
f
Swine recovered from influenza should not be kept for breeding
t
Influenza causes high morbidity but low mortality in swine
t
The HPAI causes skin haemorrhages in swine
f
Swine influenza outbreaks occur usually during summer
f
The mortality of swine influenza is high
f
Swine influenza causes high morbidity rate
t
To prevent complications of swine influenza penicillin injections are given to sick pigs
t
Swine influenza is easily transmitted to people
f
To prevent complications of swine influenza, antibiotics used
t
In swine all influenza variants can be detected
f
In a horse influenza outbreak all infected horses must be killed
f
The generalized symptoms of horse influenza are result of the interferon response
t
Racehorses should be vaccinated before the influenza season
f
Breeding mares should be vaccinated before the influenza season
f
Influenza causes persistent infection in horses
f
