Active Ingredients: Avian Influenza Inactivated Virus
Avian Influenza (Bird Flu) Vaccine is an inactivated viral vaccine used to immunize poultry against the Bird Flu disease. It is a generally safe and well-tolerated vaccine suitable for broilers, breeders, layers, and chicks from 8 days old. Vaccination is an essential component of preventing and controlling outbreaks.
Avian Influenza is highly contagious and circulates quickly among a flock; it may be spread through contaminated surfaces, including equipment and workers. As it is an often fatal disease for birds, it is essential to vaccinate against influenza.
Avian Influenza (Bird Flu) Vaccine contains an inactivated strain of the H9 Subtype. The inactivated virus will trigger the animal’s immune system, which allows it to develop antibodies against the virus. When the animal comes into contact with the strain of the virus, it will be able to better fight off a re-infection. This vaccine is typically administered by subcutaneous injection into the wing web of young birds.
