摘要：

Media sources report the outbreak of lumpy skin disease (LSD) in cattle across various districts in the Indian State of Gujarat. This fast-spreading outbreak is estimated to have infected over 40,222 animals across 15 of Gujarat's 33 districts. Over 1,000 head of cattle have succumbed to the disease. Farmers and cattle-rearing communities in the affected districts are alarmed with the infectious viral disease's spread. India has yet to officially notify the World Animal Health Organization (OIE) of the outbreak.
