[QUOTE="John Chance, post: 3729574, member: 7650"] It is widespread in Co. Durham and south Northumberland, speaking to three vet practices, perhaps 45 cases in calves. The test is free, but the PMs are not, so most farmers not paying for a PM when it's so obvious what it is. This is probably leading to under estimation of the extent of this year's outbreak. Vaccine may be available in June, which is too late (it's a two jab thing a few weeks apart and it's not licenced for pregnant animals), so no-one will buy it and then the drug companies will moan about us not buying it and not make anymore. Plenty of people would have bought vaccine, if it was produced in time to vaccinate before bulling. I think most people will take their chances withy field immunity. [/QUOTE]
