| Protect existing wounds, skin rashes or lesions, conjunctivae and mucosal surfaces from all blood and body fluids. |
|
| Eye burns result in ulceration of the conjunctivae and cornea and may cause destruction of all ocular tissues. |
|
| Flies are likely to play a central role in interspecific transmission of M. conjunctivae on alpine meadows. |
|
| Recent studies in eastern Switzerland indicated that M. conjunctivae infection is not self-maintained in chamois. |
|
| Prevention of IKC in wild Caprinae should focus on preventing the spillover of M. conjunctivae from livestock. |
|
| The mean maximal amount of radioactivity was found in bulbar and palpebral conjunctivae. |
|
| However, studies are required to evaluate the distribution of M. conjunctivae infection in domestic sheep in several countries and to assess the risk of IKC spillover from domestic animals to wildlife. |
|
| In addition, immunological studies should be performed to develop tools which could lead to the control of M. conjunctivae infection in domestic sheep. |
|
| Monkeypox virus infected predominantly epithelial cells in conjunctivae, tongue, and bronchi. |
