Newcastle Disease
Newcastle Disease is caused by Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV). It affects chickens of all ages and production systems. The severity of disease depends upon the virus strain, bird age, immunity status, and environmental conditions.
Clinical signs may include respiratory distress, coughing, sneezing, depression, diarrhea, nervous symptoms including paralysis and twisting of the neck, egg production losses, and mortality.
Why Newcastle Disease Vaccination is Necessary
The virus spreads rapidly through direct contact, contaminated equipment, feed, water, workers, and wild birds. Once introduced into a flock, the disease can affect a large number of birds within a short period. Vaccination stimulates protective immunity before exposure to field virus strains.
