The viruses are transmitted primarily through direct contact between infected animals. Understanding the sero-prevalence, risk factors and producers knowledge of the disease is critical for implementation of control strategies Methods: A cross-sectional survey was performed in the Kordofan region, from March to September 2011 using a Virus Neutralization Test (VNT) and ELISA.
