Revised: November 2023 AN: 02843/2022 Page 2 of 5 4.4 SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH TARGET SPECIES Vaccinate healthy animals only. 4.5 SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE Special precautions for use in animals The safety of the vaccine has been demonstrated in foals from 5 months of age. However, the vaccine has also been shown to be safe in a field study including animals of 2 months of age. Vaccination may interfere with existing sero-epidemiological surveys. However, since the IgM response following vaccination is infrequent, a positive IgM-ELISA test result is a strong indicator of natural infection with West Nile Virus. If infection is suspected as a result of a positive IgM response, additional testing would need to be conducted to conclusively determine whether the animal was infected or vaccinated. সম্পূর্ণ নথি পড়ুন
