Pox Flashcards
The eradication of smallpox was successful because the immunity against the virus is strong.
T
Poxviruses can cause generalised disease
T
The eradication of smallpox was successful because the virus has one and stable serotype
T
The eradication of smallpox was successful because there are clinical signs during the shedding
T
Poxviruses cause inclusion body in the cytoplasm
T
Pox viruses are epitheliotropic viruses
T
Poxviruses can cause local clinical signs
T
Serological cross-protectivity exists between certain poxvirus species but only within genus
T
Humans can be infected with the following poxviruses: Cowpox, Pseudo-cowpox, Vaccinia, Monkey Pox, Parapox, Contagious Pustular Dermatitis
T
Poxvirus can cause cytoplasmic inclusion bodies
T
Poxvirus are a strong antigen, except for Parapoxvirus
T
Serological cross-reactions exist between certain poxvirus species.
T
Poxviruses usually propagate in epithelial cells of the skin and mucosal surface.
T
Orthopox viruses are strong antigens.
T
Poxviruses usually induce cell proliferation in epithelial cells of the skin and mucosal surfaces.
T
Orthopoxviruses cause long-lasting immunity
T
Cowpoxvirus virus can infect rodents.
T
Cowpox virus is a zoonotic agent
T
People are susceptible to cowpox virus infection
T
Cowpox is closely related to smallpox virus
T
Cowpox virus is frequently present in rodents T
T
Cowpox can cause lesions in humans
T
Skin nodules and ulcers can be signs of cowpox infection in cats
T
Skin lesions may be seen in cats after Cowpox virus infection.
