Abstract
We used PCR, Sanger sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis to identify Wesselsbron virus (WSLV) clade 1 in sick camels from Borana Zone, Ethiopia. Although WSLV primarily infects sheep and cattle, its pathogenicity in camels remains unclear. Camel farmers in the region should be aware of WSLV and its health effects in camels.
