Parapoxvirus of red deer in New Zealand The host cell is denigrated after the cell's membrane is ruptured upon virus' exit. PVNZ causes scabby lesions on the face, lips, ears and velvet of deer. Deer recover in two to three weeks. Animals under two years of age are more often affected than older deer.
