VACCINATION AND HORSE HEALTH.
Diseases can occur suddenly, and without a proper vaccination protocol,it could be fatal. The benefit of vaccination aside from health status is hinged on the performance of the horse, and its much better to vaccinate your horses than to wait for disease incidence and initiate treatment.
Vaccination protects the horse against disease agents by stimulating their immune system to develop antibodies when exposed to infectious agents.Vaccinations do not confer immediate protection,it takes the body 2-4 weeks to produce the protective antibodies against the disease.The first exposure vaccination must be followed by a booster shot at 4 weeks to strengthen the expected response.
HOW TO GET THE BEST FROM VACCINATION.
1) Develop and maintain a vaccination protocol.
2)Obtain vaccines from reliable sources.
3)Maintain the cold chain.
4)Do not vaccinate sick animals.
5)Use sterile syringes and use recommended dose and route.
The Eastern and Western encephalomyelitis, west nile virus,rabies and tetanus toxoid are essential for every horse, these must be done alongside other vaccinations.
