Overview

Cross-sectional study reveals 14.57% seroprevalence of bovine herpesvirus in cattle, indicating significant risk factors.

Key Points

  • Bovine herpesvirus infection was found in 14.57% of dairy cattle across multiple herds in Ethiopia, indicating widespread exposure.
  • Herd level seroprevalence reached 61.53%, highlighting the public health implications for livestock populations.
  • Purchased cattle and histories of abortion and infertility were identified as significant risk factors, elevating seroprevalence rates.
  • Preventive measures like vaccination and biosecurity are critical in managing bovine herpesvirus transmission and protecting economic interests.
