The Kadam virus (or KAD, strain MP6640) is a tick-borne Flavivirus.[1]

Located

The virus was first isolated by the Uganda Virus Research Institute in Entebbe, Uganda after samples were taken from cattle in Karamoja in 1967.[2] The viruses were usually only found from Rhipicephalus and Amblyomma ticks around Kenya and Uganda infecting cattle and humans.[3]

Spread

Around the beginning of the 1980s, the Kadam virus was found to be spread in Saudi Arabia by Hyalomma ticks[3] when found on a dead camel at Wadi Thamamah in Riyadh.
