AI Article Synopsis

  • Control of IBR (Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis) and BVD (Bovine Viral Diarrhea) is achievable in Europe with existing vaccines and monitoring tools.
  • A systematic approach and strict enforcement of control measures are critical for effectiveness.
  • Many countries have ongoing voluntary or mandatory control programs, which can influence neighboring regions to start their own initiatives as well.

Article Abstract

Control of IBR and BVD should be possible in Europe. Effective vaccines and reliable tools for monitoring are available. Systematic approach and strict implementation of control measures are essential. Voluntary or mandatory programs are ongoing on regional or national level in a lot of countries. Successful programs put pressure on surrounding regions/countries to initiate control program as well.

Surveillance of endemic pathogens is essential for disease control, providing an evidence base for policy and advice. Bovine Herpes Virus Type 1 (BoHV-1), the causative agent of Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR), has been found to have high seroprevalence within the Irish cattle population. The aim of the present study was to establish seroprevalence levels for culled cattle in Ireland aged < 30 months and to establish whether BVD exposure and other factors was associated with BoHV-1 exposure.
