'

Contagious agalactia (CA), which is also known as contagious agalactosis, is a highly contagious infectious disease of sheep and goats caused by a mycoplasma. It is characterized by a lack of secretion of milk from the glands. Symptoms of the disease include lack of appetite, loss of weight, lameness, fever, coughing, and a cheesy discharge from the mammary glands.

The disease is spread primarily by direct contact between infected and non-infected animals, either through the saliva of infected animals or contaminated objects. It can also be spread through indirect contact, such as contaminated water, food and bedding, or through contact with infected, but apparently healthy animals.

The most effective way to control the spread of contagious agalactia is to isolate the affected animals and prevent contact between the infected and healthy animals. Vaccination of infected or at-risk animals is also recommended.

Finally, good hygiene practices should be observed, such as proper disposal of manure, bedding, and feed, to prevent the spread of the disease. By following these preventive measures, the spread of contagious agalactia can be effectively controlled.
