Key result

FMD virus was isolated from asymptomatic cattle (39.6%), buffalo (11.4%), sheep (41.2%), and goats (100%), as well as from milk and water samples in Sharkia governorate, Egypt.

Population

Animals (cattle, buffalo, sheep, and goat) in Sharkia governorate, Egypt, without clinical signs of FMD.
