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.
我们通过报告 2014 年 9 月至 12 月期间在苏丹东部绍瓦克地区发生的涉及单峰骆驼和 3 名骆驼饲养员的感染病例，为骆驼痘病毒的人畜共患病性质提供了证据。骆驼饲养员的皮肤损伤包括红斑、水疱和脓疱，涉及手臂、手、腿、背部和腹部，不到 2 个月即可痊愈，且无人与人之间的传播。诊断是通过分子技术、细胞培养中的病毒分离和部分基因组测序来实现的。
