Note

  • infection = HEMORRHAGIC SYNDROME, BOVINE or coord IM with BOVINE VIRUS DIARRHEA-MUCOSAL DISEASE (IM) or PESTIVIRUS INFECTIONS (IM) if not in cattle

Scope note

  • A species of PESTIVIRUS causing systemic infections including BOVINE VIRUS DIARRHEA-MUCOSAL DISEASE and BOVINE HEMORRHAGIC SYNDROME in cattle and some other cloven-hoofed animals. There are several strains and two biotypes: cytopathic (rare) and non-cytopathic. The severity of disease appears to be strain dependent. Cytopathogenic effects do not correlate with virulence as non-cytopathic BVDV-2 is associated only with Hemorrhagic Disease, Bovine.
