First, it is not a virus but rather a genetic defect. The actual name is SCID, which in its full form is Severe Combined Immunodeficiency. It is a lethal disease of Arabian foals, causing either severe under-development or complete absence of the immune system. Foals born with this typically live less than a year, as they are extremely susceptible to infections and have little to no ability to fight off the infections.

Technically horses with SCID, specifically Arabians are not born with a virus. SCID is actually a genetic defect on chromosome #9. The answer of no immune system is correct in a SCID horse with this autosomal recessive defect can not produce T and B-lymphocytes, which are part of a healthy immune system. An SCID foal will die within weeks but most likely before five months of age, because they can not fight off infection. Infection can come from: bacteria, viruses, fungus. With a careful breeding plan, the birth of an SCID foal can be prevented. no immune systym
There is no such thing as SCID virus in horses. SCID (Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disease) is a genetic defect in Arabian horses where a foal's immune system does not develop. The foal will look normal when born but over 4-6 months will develop a series of nasty infectious diseases, one of which will kill it within a year of life.
