Stockholm, August 20, 2024 - Some of Europe's foremost strangles experts have compiled and published an article in which experiences from the use of Strangvac are discussed. The article was published in Equine Veterinary Education (EVE) which is the official journal for the education of practicing equine veterinarians through the organizations British Equine Veterinary Association (BEVA) and American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP). The magazine publishes peer reviewed articles on diagnostics and treatment of horses for equine veterinarians and veterinary students.
The purpose of the article is to share the experience gathered so far of the use of the vaccine in the field, as well as to provide guidelines for practicing veterinarians based on these experiences as vaccination is an important tool in the fight against strangles.
The article proposes recommendations regarding vaccination intervals and the authors review, among other things, the benefit of vaccination during ongoing strangles outbreaks, as the properties of the vaccine make it possible to differentiate infected from vaccinated animals, as well as the vaccination of pregnant mares and foals. The authors have also reviewed reported adverse events and make the assessment that the vaccine is safe to use.
