High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV), also known as rabbit calicivirus (RCV), is the type species of the genus Lagovirus belonging to Caliciviridae family. RHDV is an important pathogen that causes a highly contagious disease in wild and domestic rabbits, rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD). The virus infects only rabbits, and has been used in some countries to control rabbit populations. Rabbit haemorrhagic disease first appeared in China during the early 1980s. In 1984 the virus that caused the disease was discovered. The virus spread westward and reached Europe in 1988. The virus has since appeared in Mexico, Cuba, Australia, New Zealand and the USA. The virus was imported into Australia in 1991 as a potential biological control agent. Testing of the virus was undertaken on Wardang Island in Spencer Gulf off the coast of the Yorke Peninsula, South Australia. In 1995 the virus escaped from the island. The virus was subsequently released into rabbit populations throughout Australia in an attempt to control rabbit infestations.
