PPMV-1 antigen strain P201.

Formulation 
Water-in-oil emulsion.

Indications 
Active immunisation of pigeons from 3 weeks of age onwards against clinical signs caused by a very virulent PPMV-1 infection. The vaccine has been shown to significantly reduce virus excretion after challenge.

Vaccination

Because of the time taken for the development of full protective immunity, birds should preferably be vaccinated 6 weeks (but at least two weeks) before being entered into races or exhibitions, or before being used for mating. A single vaccination will provide protection for one year. An annual booster vaccination is recommended.
