Epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) is a non-contagious arthropod-borne disease transmitted by blood-sucking midges of the genus Culicoides. It affects domestic and wild ruminants, mainly white-tailed deer and cattle. At the end of October and in November 2022, outbreaks of EHD were confirmed in several cattle farms in Sardinia and Sicily. This is the first detection of EHD in Europe. The loss of free status and the lack of effective prophylactic measures could have significant economic consequences for infected countries.
流行性出血病（EHD）是一种由库蠓属吸血蠓传播的非传染性节肢动物传播疾病。它影响家养和野生反刍动物，主要是白尾鹿和牛。2022年10月底和11月，撒丁岛和西西里岛的几家养牛场证实爆发了EHD。这是欧洲首次检测到EHD。失去自由状态以及缺乏有效的预防措施可能会给受感染国家带来重大经济后果。
