    In 2 permanent suction light trapping stations at Bet-Dagan and Kabri designated to monitor bluetongue virus (BTV) activity, 12 isolations were made during 1981 to 1983 from C. imicola. Isolation attempts from C. obsoletus, which was dominant in Kabri and caught concurrently with C. imicola did not yield BTV, while isolations were made from C. imicola. Negative isolation atempts were also experienced in C. oxystoma, C. puncticollis and C. circumscriptus, while BTV was isolated from C. imicola. So far the following serotypes of BTV were isolated from Culicoides spp. in Israel: 2, 4, 6, 10 and 16.

    Poliomyelitis

    Poliomyelitis is caused by poliovirus, a small, non-enveloped, positive-sense RNA virus of the Picornaviridae family and Enterovirus genus. Transmission occurs primarily via the fecal-oral route, often through ingestion of contaminated water or food. The virus initially replicates in the oropharynx and intestinal mucosa, particularly in lymphoid tissues such as the tonsils, Peyer’s patches, and regional lymph nodes. Primary viremia follows, allowing dissemination throughout the body.In most...
