Paramyxoviruses, such as CDV, measles, respiratory syncytial virus, simian virus 5, and parainfluenza virus type 3, have long been suspected as the causative agents of Paget's disease, a focal destructive disease of bone. Most studies, however, have pointed more directly at CDV and measles. A virus detection technique, in situ RT-PCR, has found CDV in 100% of Paget's disease samples, whereas other virus detection techniques have been less accurate.

“Perfect Scepticisme ... is a disease incurable, and a thing rather to be pitied or laughed at, then seriously opposed. For when a man is so fugitive and unsettled that he will not stand to the verdict of his own Faculties, one can no more fasten any thing upon him, than he can write in the water, or tye knots in the wind.”
