Re: [AlpacaTalk] West Nile Virus Vaccine dose

Allplicable to Ft. Dodge "West Nile Innovator" only:

Initial immunization...

1ml given IM every 3 weeks, total of 3 treatments.

Booster...

1ml, IM, 6 weeks prior to anticipated peak exposure time.

Due to lab results indicating more than half our herd had developed
anitbodies (from apparent natural exposure) with no clinical signs of
disease, and in consult with our vet, we have never vaccinated for WNV. You
might want to compare notes with other breeders in your area as well as
discuss the issue with your vet to make an informed decision on your needs.
