Abstract: Intranasal vaccination soon after birth is a common protocol used on many dairy farms with a goal of reducing preweaning respiratory disease. Although several studies have assessed antibody titers post-intranasal vaccination, few have assessed clinically relevant outcomes. No studies have compared the efficacy of intranasal vaccination against viral agents with intranasal vaccination against viral and bacterial agents. Our objective was to assess the effect of these 2 types of intranasal vaccine products against a non-vaccinated control group on respiratory disease, mortality, and ADG in preweaned heifers.
