Small ruminants (e.g., sheep and goats) contribute considerably to the cash income and nutrition of small farmers in most countries in Africa and Asia. Their husbandry is threatened by the highly infectious transboundary viral disease peste des petits ruminants (PPR) caused by peste-des-petits-ruminants virus (PPRV). Given its social and economic impact, PPR is presently being targeted by international organizations for global eradication by 2030. Since its first description in Côte d'Ivoire in 1942, and particularly over the last 10 years, a large amount of molecular epidemiological data on the virus have been generated in Africa. This review aims to consolidate these data in order to have a clearer picture of the current PPR situation in Africa, which will, in turn, assist authorities in global eradication attempts.
小反刍动物(如绵羊和山羊)为大多数非洲和亚洲国家的小农户提供了可观的现金收入和营养。它们的畜牧业受到高度传染性的跨界病毒性疾病小反刍动物疫病(PPR)的威胁,该病由小反刍兽疫病毒(PPRV)引起。鉴于其对社会和经济的影响,国际组织目前正在针对 PPR 开展全球根除工作,目标是在 2030 年前实现。自 1942 年在科特迪瓦首次描述以来,特别是在过去 10 年中,非洲已经产生了大量关于该病毒的分子流行病学数据。本综述旨在整合这些数据,以便更清楚地了解非洲目前的 PPR 情况,这反过来将有助于全球根除工作的主管部门。
