Article Synopsis
- A passive surveillance study in Oman examined 282,020 animals across 8 abattoirs from 2010 to 2013, finding a significant prevalence of cystic echinococcosis (CE) with 40.8% of 1,440 sampled positive, especially high in Dhofar (64.2%).
- Camels emerged as the primary source of CE (52% of fertile cysts), with infection rates varying significantly among species: camels (5.3%), cattle (0.6%), sheep (0.07%), and goats (0.03%), and overall infection rates were higher in female animals (67.9%).
