Ej. Dubovi, IMPACT OF BOVINE VIRAL DIARRHEA VIRUS ON REPRODUCTIVE-PERFORMANCE IN CATTLE, The Veterinary clinics of North America. Food animal practice, 10(3), 1994, pp. 503-514
Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infections continue to cause major
economic losses to the cattle industry inspite of extensive use of vac
cines. A major factor in the failure to control BVDV is the lack of pr
oper design of vaccination programs to control the reproductive aspect
s of this infection. Preventing the generation of persistently infecte
d animals is the key to elimnating BVDV in herds.
