Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) significantly impacts economies in Africa and the Middle East. Advances in diagnosis and vaccines offer control, but require international standards and surveys for eradication.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Virology
  • Disease Epidemiology
  • Animal Health Economics

Background:

  • Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) poses a growing economic threat in Africa, the Middle East, and potentially the Indian subcontinent.
  • Antigenic similarities between PPR virus and rinderpest virus complicate disease diagnosis and control efforts.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the economic significance of Peste des petits ruminants (PPR).
  • To discuss diagnostic and control advancements for PPR.
  • To identify remaining challenges for PPR eradication.

Main Methods:

  • Review of recent advancements in diagnostic tools, including specific nucleic acid probes and monoclonal antibodies.
  • Evaluation of control strategies, focusing on the development of homologous vaccines.
