A serological survey to determine the prevalence of antibodies to bovine virus diarrhoea-mucosal disease (BVD-MD) virus was conducted on 419 bovine serum samples originating from 18 of 20 regions (except Mwanza and Shinyanga) of the Tanzania mainland. The sera were a small proportion of samples collected for the appraisal of immune response to rinderpest vaccination. The survey indicated that the virus is prevalent in cattle populations and approximately 12% of sera tested contained demonstrable neutralising antibodies against BVD-MD virus.
对来自坦桑尼亚大陆20个地区中的18个地区（姆万扎和希尼安加除外）的419份牛血清样本进行了一项血清学调查，以确定牛病毒性腹泻-黏膜病（BVD-MD）病毒抗体的流行情况。这些血清是为评估牛瘟疫苗免疫反应而采集的样本中的一小部分。调查表明，该病毒在牛群中普遍存在，约12%的检测血清含有可证实的抗BVD-MD病毒中和抗体。
