[RC] WNV question--FYI - Dot WigginsA follow up to this question about WNV shots. Asked three different vets, from three states, got this response: This horse should be fine with the one Fort Dodge shot this year. She had two shots first year, then a booster FD, then a booster of Meriel last year. All vets felt that the Meriel would give some immunity, and this year's one FD should keep the immunity at a good level. One Vet said that FD is now saying that missing a season's booster should still leave the horse with some immunity. These vets are some I respect highly. Anyone have any supporting/conflicting information? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Adam and Jannelle" <mfarm@xxxxxxx> Subject: RE: [RC] WNV question Dot, everything I have been told is that since they work differently, you need to give two if you change from one to the other. Jannelle To: ridecamp Subject: [RC] WNV question Recently purchased horse had two seasons of Fort Dodge WNV and last year was given the Meriel WNV. Don't know if one shot, or two, with the change in type. We much prefer the FD. Will this horse need two shots of FD this year? Or will just one shot of FD work as a booster? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
