Ovine Ecthyma (Sore Mouth) Vaccine is recommended for vaccinating both sheep and goats against disease caused by ovine ecthyma virus or against sore mouth infection. Dosage: 1 drop to 1" scarified area. Do not vaccinate within 21 days of slaughter.
It is advisable to vaccinate each new lamb and kid crop because dried scabs retain the infective virus which is resistant to heat and cold and can be expected to survive from year to year. Exposure to infection can occur during shipping. Range lambs moving into feedlots should be vaccinated at least 10 days before shipment to prevent the spread of the disease after arrival.
Normally only healthy animals should be vaccinated but experience has shown that in outbreaks of sore mouth, vaccination of the infected sheep and lambs tends to shorten the course of disease.
OVINE ECTHYMA VACCINE is a live virus vaccine. Do not use within 24 hours of dipping or spraying.
