    [RC] WNV Shots - Roger Rittenhouse


    According to two vet clinics here my old vet and now my new one. They
    MUST control the shots - that is Ft Dodge wants to know where it is
    being used how many horses have it etc sort a control policy to be
    able to plot the coverage of their vaccine.
    
    My new vet said she would give me the shots - I take 7 - with the S/N
    assigned to a specific horse. Both vets who gave the WNV did that - they
    wrote down the name of the horses along with the numbers from the vial.
    
    She does not have to come out to give the shot just trust me - she
    does- to give the correct numbered shot to the assigned horse.
    
    So to respond to Heidi - Yes Ft Dodge does want control.
    
    I just gave the 6 month booster shot  - we have tons of mosquitos,
    nothing much I can really do for now. Going to add mosquito fish to
    the pond, we dump all water try to keep from pools  but there are too
    places all over the 25 ac pasture I cannot control
    I have though about those CO2 traps that burn propane.. how is that as a
    good eco thing??   Oh for the good old days of DDT  . JOKING  for you
    eco folks
    
    from Heidi S

     Please note the major problem in Louisiana now  - going to many sick
    and dead people and horses down there. I dont know of a vac for humans??
