“Images of the man suffering with lumpy skin disease after consuming milk/meat from the infected animals”
What FACTLY found
According to FAO, lumpy skin disease (LSD) is a non-Zoonotic disease, which means it cannot transmit from animals to humans. The viral image of the person with skin infection in the post belongs to Pakistan. He is suffering from pemphigus vulgaris and herpes infections and was discharged a week later. Also, there are no reported cases of LSD in humans
