Distemper is a viral disease that primarily affects animals, particularly dogs, ferrets, and other wildlife. It is not transmissible to humans, as the virus is species-specific. However, it is highly contagious among susceptible animals, so it is important to ensure proper vaccination and preventative measures to protect pets from contracting distemper.
Canine distemper can infect humans. When it infects humans it is known as Paget's disease. It increases the production of osteoclasts. Distemper in dogs will not produce distemper in humans, it is a different disease in humans.
Canine distemper is not contagious to humans.

No, distemper cannot spread to humans. It is a disease that primarily affects animals, especially dogs.
No, humans cannot contract distemper. It is a disease that primarily affects animals, such as dogs and ferrets.
Yes, humans cannot be affected by canine distemper. Canine distemper is a virus that primarily affects dogs and other animals in the canine family. It does not pose a risk to humans.
No- distemper is strictly an animal disease to which humans are immune, we can only give animals distemper by deliberately infecting them with it via injection, which would be a very cruel and inhumane thing to do.
Examples: Dutch Elm Disease and Distemper
No, cats cannot get distemper from dogs. Canine distemper virus specifically infects dogs and other members of the Canidae family, and does not affect cats. Cats are at risk for other diseases such as feline distemper (panleukopenia) or feline leukemia virus, but not distemper from dogs.
can a person get distemper
I have not heard of goats getting distemper. Avian distemper is Newcastle disease. Dogs get canine distemper which can kill them. Equine distemper is strangles Feline distemper is feline panleukopaenia.
There is no such thing as a Human Distemper Virus. The Canine Distemper Virus is only transferable from dog to dog. It is, however, similar to the human virus the Measles. The only way the Canine Distemper Virus would ever transfer to humans is if the virus would be given "new instructions", and mutate. Antibiotics do not work on virus' so there is no cure to CDV, only prevention (by vaccination).
