[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1072569, member: 12607"] Thanks, Bez. I try to have things straight when I post - but will readily admit that I've been wrong, or 'behind the times' on some stuff - and folks here thankfully don't hesitate to call me on it. I appreciate it - we all have things to learn. Vets are just like anyone else. Sometimes we don't question 'conventional wisdom' (which may not be all that wise), and just fall in step and continue to parrot the old misinformation. Earlier this fall, I saw a news release about anaplasmosis, quoting one of my grad school mentors who explained that the infection came from deer and was transmitted by horseflies. Wrong! There's no scientific evidence that whitetail deer are involved in maintenance or transmission of anaplasmosis to cattle, and in this part of the country, ticks are by far and away, the most important vector; biting flies of minimal concern with our strains of A.marginale.
