Abstract
The orf virus is one of the parapoxviruses. It occurs worldwide and its natural reservoir are sheep and goats. Infections in humans can occur through direct or indirect contact with affected animals. The infectious ulcerations usually heal spontaneously after a few weeks in immunocompetent patients. An infection must be reported to the responsible professional association if the exposure occurs in the occupational environment, for example in farmers.
