[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 1057484, member: 17767"] Thanks, Ken and Lucky. With regard to a vaccine like Bovi-Shield Shield Gold FP (MLV), are the modified virus factions in the serum non-cytopathic or are the viruses cytopathic and they are [i]modified[/i] to make them non-cytopathic? I want to know more about why there is fear/risk in regard to MLV specific to the FP vaccines. Rocking P does not use them because of the kinds of problems caused like what happened to me when I vaccinated a pregnant heifer that was thought to be open. Other than going to the vet here in Maysville there is no locally available Bovi-Shield MLV FP vaccines. Vendors say they are concerned that stocking the MLV FP vaccines will make them available to producers who will not use them as prescribed and cause injury to their operations. I want to know about the nature of the antigen (in this case a modified live virus) in a vaccine like Bovi-Shield. What is modified and how is it modified? What risk does it pose? I prefer to use vaccines that illicit the best immune response possible in my cows so I want to use the MLVs. I appreciate insight into what you think you could provide here that would help someone better understand. [/QUOTE]
