Re: Article - Gumboro

I commend Engormix to publish a great article on a very important and dangerous disease of chickens. Author wrote a very well balanced article that covers all aspects of this disease. I am confident this article will certainly help farm managers to control Gumboro and now they can design a comprehensive vaccination program that is often misled by the manufacturing companies. This article tell us that if a vaccination program is effective at Farm A, it is not necessary that it would be effective on Farm B.

Author needs all applause to gather all important information in a single article for the benefit of industry.

In the quest of IBD vaccination failure due to various reasons, Virus Neutralizing Factor (VNF) vaccines could be possible tool. However, good bio-security measure and right selection of a correct vaccination strain along with strict vaccination schedule will help farmers to prevent Gumboro Disease.

This is an excellent and comprehensive paper on Gumboro diseases. The higher mortality rate within a short period of 6-10 days makes this disease to be dreadful. Mortality losses could be reduce by administration of broad spectrum antibiotic + coccidostat + vitamin & electrolyes. These drugs could be administered by pulse dosing since there is reduced appetite.
