Summary. Åpizootologic data, clinical signs, patomorphologic changes at the sharp course of a viral hemorrhagic disease of rabbits in the period of an epizooty in a farm of the North Caucasus, results of researches and carrying out actions for viral hemorrhagic disease elimination are described. Process of epizootic diseases in the rabbit breeding farm caused by a new virus genotype was studied by the authors. Due to application of the technique developed by the authors on elimination of viral hemorrhagic disease of rabbits it was succeeded to stop the epizooty, to keep to 80% of animals and to eliminate epizootic isolate of virus of viral hemorrhagic disease of rabbits for production of specific biological products.
Keywords: viral hemorrhagic disease of rabbits, immunity, formol vaccine, specific serum, agglutination, hemorrhagic diathesis, measures for disease elimination, epizooty.
