I need to start getting mine vax'd but with Sooo many buns who've had the jab getting myxi, im not so sure :/ x
IM very interested in Janes thread about the manufacturers wanting to know if vacced buns are getting myxo.
Does this mean that they think the vacc should be 100 per cent or is myxo mutating into a harder form to vacc against thus they need to improve it??
As far as I understand it, it mutates regularly and some seasons it mutates more (seasons like this, and that in 2007) and then they need to adjust the vaccine because it doesn't cover as much as it should.
I think in 2007 it was something like only 20% of vaccinated rabbits were actually covered against myxo because the strain mutated and killed a lot of vaccinated rabbits with full blown myxo.
Scary! :shock:
