Contagious ecthyma (CE) is a highly contagious viral skin disease that occurs in many ruminants, especially sheep and goats (21). The disease is also known as “Orf”, contagious pustular dermatitis, or “sore mouth,” and is much more severe in goat kids than it is in lambs (18). The causative agent is the Orf virus, a member of the Parapoxvirus genus of the Poxviridae family. The disease is widespread all over the world, and its prevalence increases especially during late summer and fall (12). While morbidity can reach 100% in farms where the disease occurs for the first time, mortality is approximately 5-10% when complicated by secondary bacterial infections (4). Once introduced to a herd, the disease can be quite challenging to control and eradicate. Transmission occurs primarily through direct contact with a clinically affected animal or through indirect contact with soil and scabs that contain the virus. In addition, infection may result from iatrogenic transmission through surgical procedures, ear tagging and handling (10, 15). The incubation period of the disease varies from 4 to 8 days and is characterised by an initial rise in temperature and the development of papules and pustules often at the oral commissures, lips and nose. These symptoms are followed by thick, tenacious scabs Comparison of effectiveness of parenteral lincomycin/spectinomycin combination and dexpanthenol application in goat kids with contagious ecthyma
