Erypelothrix

might wait on lepto bc you dont want to give too many.

Q

T/F: calves are born agammaglobulinemic. however they are immune competent at birth

A

True

93
Q

you should ideally vaccinate calves when

A

before protective maternal antibody titers drop below the protective level

pre-weaning vaccination may help with continuity of immunuty

A

6 months of age
-highly variable based on pathogen/vaccine and individual animals

95
Q

How do maternal antibodies interfere with antibody generation

Q

T/F: T cell response is very affected by maternal antibodies

A

False

A

False - however, LV is superior to killed for reducing BRD associated morbidity and mortality

101
Q

MLV intranasal vaccines for cattle result in

A

rapid onset of protection ~3days
protection at site of entry for respiratory pathogen (mucosal immune priming and IgA production)

repeat after 6 months to avoid maternal antibody interference

re-vaccinated

and ensure adequate passive transfer of maternal immunity

Vaccination of beef calves at or shortly after weaning with pareneteral multivalent MLV vaccines

105

A

FDA approved for experimental use
must be manufactured in a USDA approved facility (not in Louisiana)
Approved for sale in some states
only available through a vet
proven safety in animals but NOT proven effective
may reduce severity and number of disease events in a herd
