Camelpox

Camelpox is a disease of camels caused by a virus of the family Poxviridae and the genus Orthopoxvirus. It causes skin lesions and a generalized infection. Fatality rates may approach 25 percent in epidemics in young camels, but other cases are generally mild. The infection may be spread to the hands of camel drivers.
