[QUOTE="rockridgecattle, post: 927896, member: 6198"] Just to expand on what Anazazi said, vaccinations are cheap insurance against serious diseases. An abortion storm can devistate the bottom like in any given year in unprotected cattle A scour epidemic can set calves back alot, or even cause some deaths, again the bottom line gets affected. PI calves can also affect the bottom line by shedding viruses, which will increase the virus load in the herd causing more problems. Add to that, PI calves become money pits in the way of drugs because they seem to pick up every bug imaginable. PI = persistently infected. Usually associated with BVD [/QUOTE]
