| Abstract | • Length of mosquito season. Since mosquitoes are present in May, you will generally want to booster or at least have part of the vaccination series started in May. By October mosquito pressure is generally low, so the period May through October is when WNV protection is needed. • Time when WNV disease peaks. WNV disease peaks in August, so you want good protection at this time. • Vaccination history. The vaccination history must be taken into account. This is especially true for vaccination programs aimed at foals. • Intended use. The intended use of the horse, including the location of horse shows/exhibitions is a further consideration in constructing vaccination programs. |
