Newcastle disease (ND) is a highly contagious viral infection that affects poultry, causing a wide range of signs and symptoms.

It is caused by virulent strains of avian paramyxovirus type 1.
The disease appears in three forms: lentogenic or mild, mesogenic or
moderate and velogenic or very virulent, also called Newcastle disease.
