Vaccination Against Bovine Babesiosis

  • Chapter
Immunity to Blood Parasites of Animals and Man

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 93))

Abstract

Among the first to practice vaccination against babesiosis were Pound (1897) in Australia and Connaway & Francis (1899) in the United States of America. In Australia the need was to check the disastrous losses which accompanied the epizootic spread of recently introduced babesiosis (Seddon 1952), whereas in the United States the measure was adopted to protect susceptible northern cattle that were introduced to what was then the enzootic area of the South.
