A wild muskox (Ovibos moschatus) with dermatitis typical of contagious ecthyma had secondary bacterial septicemia with Corynebacterium freneyi that included laminitis, hepatitis, and suppurative encephalitis. This case supports the association between orf virus infection and fatal secondary infections, which may have contributed to population declines on Victoria Island, Canada.
一只患有典型接触传染性脓疱性皮炎的野生麝香牛（Ovibos moschatus）继发了弗里氏棒状杆菌引起的细菌性败血病，伴有蹄叶炎、肝炎和化脓性脑炎。该病例支持了口疮病毒感染与致命性继发感染之间的关联，这可能导致了加拿大维多利亚岛麝香牛数量的下降。
