Vaccines, Immunology and Clinical Trials

Veterinary Vaccines and Animal Health

Veterinary vaccines have had, and continue to have, a major role in protecting animal health and public health, reducing animal suffering, enabling efficient production of food animals to feed the burgeoning human population, and greatly reducing the need for antibiotics to treat food and companion animals. Vaccination has long been an effective way to reduce disease burden in pets and farm animals and is a key tool in maintaining animal health and welfare. Vaccines continue to play an increasingly vital role in preventative health and disease control programs in animals. Innovative research and the development of safe, effective, and quality vaccines mean that our pets and farm animals continue to benefit from vital medicines that prevent or alleviate clinical signs of disease.
