Lumpy skin disease (LSD) was firstly reported in Thailand in 2021 which affected the cattle industry. However, there is limited information on the immune response of LSDV infection in Thailand where recombinant vaccine strain circulated. The aim of this research was to study the duration of LSD immune response of subclinical and clinical animals after natural infection in dairy cattle.

- African horse sickness (AHS) is a serious disease caused by the African horse sickness virus (AHSV) and was notably reported in Thailand in March 2020, specifically due to serotype 1.
- A vaccination campaign using live attenuated vaccines for serotypes 1, 3, and 4 effectively controlled the outbreak within a 50-km zone around the infection site.
- A new real-time reverse transcription PCR assay has been developed to help quickly distinguish between vaccinated and non-vaccinated horses showing AHS-like symptoms, enhancing the ability to track the disease in future outbreaks.
The emergence of the lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) was first detected in north-eastern Thailand in March 2021. Since then, the abrupt increase of LSD cases was observed throughout the country as outbreaks have spread rapidly to 64 out of a total of 77 provinces within four months. Blood, milk, and nodular skin samples collected from affected animals have been diagnosed by real-time PCR targeting the gene.
