How to prevent PPR disease in goats and sheep?

Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR), also called goat plague, is a viral disease causing high fever, mouth sores, eye and nose discharge, severe diarrhoea and high death rates. The most effective prevention is vaccination with the PPR vaccine, which gives long-lasting protection; India is running a national PPR control and eradication programme, so vaccination is often available free through your Animal Husbandry Department. Also keep new animals in quarantine before mixing them with the flock, maintain clean housing, and isolate sick animals immediately. There is no specific cure once infected, so a vet only gives supportive care. Vaccinate kids and adults as advised, and avoid buying animals from markets during outbreaks. Report sudden deaths to the veterinary department.
