Talk:Orf (animal disease)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] "inoculation"
"Humans can contract the disorder by direct inoculation from the mouth of infected sheep and goats". I wikified "inoculation", but on reading what it is, it hardly seems to make sense in this sentence.

- It's an odd usage of the word, but I've heard of it, although it usually refers to infection introduced directly into a wound. I would suggest changing it to "Humans can contract this disorder through direct contact with infected sheep and goats or with fomites carrying the orf virus." --Joelmills 06:09, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
