Vet Charles Chavasse from Zoetis Ireland joins Ciarán Lynch on this week’s OviCast to discuss the various aspects of vaccination.

Charles starts by explaining how the vaccination process works and some of the differences between those commonly used vaccines at farm level.

He highlights the role of safe handling and administration of vaccines and how that impacts their efficacy.

Charles then discusses the process of passive immunity from the ewe to their progeny and the duration of cover of clostridial vaccines before finishing up on how to identify issues on farm this spring and how a vaccination programme may reduce some of these issues.
