    Snippet: The experimental infection of adult horses with ECoV was associated with mild and self-limiting clinical signs, transient lymphopenia, and fecal shedding of ECoV. The experimental infection mimics natural infection, where morbidity rates vary between 20-80%. Although the number of horses in each group was relatively small, there were no differences between experimentally infected horses and horses being exposed to ECoV-containing feces. The study.....
    Document: The experimental infection of adult horses with ECoV was associated with mild and self-limiting clinical signs, transient lymphopenia, and fecal shedding of ECoV. The experimental infection mimics natural infection, where morbidity rates vary between 20-80%. Although the number of horses in each group was relatively small, there were no differences between experimentally infected horses and horses being exposed to ECoV-containing feces. The study supports a feco-oral route of transmission. 168 horses undergoing CEM quarantine between October 2014 and June 2016 had a veterinary exam and nasal secretions collected at the time of entry and if they developed acute respiratory signs during quarantine. Samples were assayed for equine influenza virus (EIV), equine herpes virus 1, 2, 4, and 5 (EHV-1, -2, -4, -5), equine rhinitis virus A and B (ERVs) and Streptococcus equi subspecies equi using qPCR.
