title: [Note on goat pox in Chad: study of the foci].
abstract: Several outbreaks of goat-pox were observed from 1985 to 1989 in different villages of the N'Djamena area. The virus strain circulating in this region seemed to be host-specific for goats since sheep kept in contact with goats did not suffer from the disease. Nevertheless, it has to be studied further on whether the virus isolated from sick goats could be pathogenic for sheep.
