Contagiousness of swine vesicular disease to man
Abstract
Nine persons dealing with the clinical and laboratory diagnosis of swine vesicular disease were serologicaly examined. Among them one person working in the laboratory laundry experienced mucosal lesions in his mouth and tongue two weeks after SVD virus isolation and subsequent diagnostic works. Another person who was accidentally pricked by syringe needle infected with SVD – virus during the reproduction of the disease in pigs didn't show any symptoms. All sera were negative in double immunodiffusion test. In the neutralization test except one serum which was doubtful (titre 1:24) all other were negative (titre 1:16).
