2015, Veterinary MicrobiologyCitation Excerpt :Prevention of myxomatosis in rabbitries relies on good hygienic practices, insect control and vaccination (for review see Arthur and Louzis, 1988). Despite the success of vaccines (Arthur and Louzis, 1988), the disease is a recurrent problem on rabbit farms throughout Spain (Rosell, 2000, 2003) and in Europe (Farsang et al., 2003; Kritas et al., 2008; Marlier et al., 2000, 2001; Belsam et al., 2010). The potential causes of vaccine breaks may include problems with vaccine, changes in the pathogen, host and environmental factors (Knight-Jones et al., 2014).

2013, Veterinary Clinics of North America - Exotic Animal PracticeCitation Excerpt :Seasonality is driven by the availability of vectors and the epidemiology of the disease in wild rabbits. In rabbitries, introduction of rabbits carrying the disease (including vaccinated rabbits) has led to epidemics.54 Introduced semen may also pose a risk.55
Myxomatosis in Australia and Europe: A model for emerging infectious diseases
2012, Antiviral ResearchCitation Excerpt :Such observations need to be interpreted carefully since bacterial upper respiratory tract infections mimic many of the clinical signs of myxomatosis and can confuse diagnosis even by experienced field workers. The idea that rabbits can remain persistently infected with MYXV with no clinical signs of disease and subsequent recrudescence of “latent virus” has been proposed to explain the appearance of myxomatosis at isolated field sites and the introduction of myxomatosis into rabbit farms (Dunsmore et al., 1971; Williams et al., 1972; Arthur and Louzis, 1988; Kritas et al., 2008). Two experiments have been done to test this hypothesis.
