  • Title: Human and Dromedary Camel Infection with Camelpox Virus in Eastern Sudan.
    Author: Khalafalla AI, Abdelazim F.
    Journal: Vector Borne Zoonotic Dis; 2017 Apr; 17(4):281-284. PubMed ID: 28055328.
    Abstract:
    We provide evidence for the zoonotic nature of camelpox virus by reporting infections that involved dromedary camels and three camel herders in Showak area of eastern Sudan between September and December 2014. The skin lesions in the camel herders consisted of erythema, vesicles, and pustules that involved arms, hands, legs, back, and abdomen and resolved within less than 2 months with no human-to-human transmission. The diagnosis was achieved through molecular technique, virus isolation in cell culture, and partial genome sequencing.
