Current equine influenza vaccination practices in the United Kingdom may leave some horses with suboptimal immunity, according to researchers.
A survey of vets revealed greater adherence to competition guidelines than with the datasheet advice issued by the vaccine manufacturers.
Researchers in a University of Liverpool study set out to learn more about the current vaccination practices advised by vets treating horses in Britain and compare them with the manufacturers’ datasheets and current guidelines.
