Treatment of contagious caprine pleuropneumonia.
Goats that had been inoculated with the causal organism of contagious caprine pleuropneumonia and treated, within a few days, with oxytetracycline or tylosin, were less severely affected than infected, untreated control goats. However, 20% of treated cases remained infective and were, presumably, capable of transmitting the infection.
