Based on clinical signs, the presence of a rinderpest related antigen and the ability of rinderpest immune serum to prevent virus isolation, rinderpest was diagnosed in two outbreaks in goats in central Sudan during 1971 and 1972. Two viruses isolated from these goats have been re-examined both serologically and by the inoculation of experimental cattle, sheep and goats. Each is now considered to represent the virus of peste des petits ruminants, thereby extending the geographical range of this agent.
根据临床症状、牛瘟相关抗原的存在以及牛瘟免疫血清阻止病毒分离的能力，1971年和1972年在苏丹中部的两次山羊疫情中确诊为牛瘟。从这些山羊中分离出的两种病毒已通过血清学方法和接种实验牛、羊和山羊进行了重新检测。现在认为每种病毒都代表小反刍兽疫病毒，从而扩大了这种病原体的地理分布范围。
