Re: [RC] re:west nile - Kari Hanes
Our horses were given there's in a 5-way with the other standard vac's a
few months ago. Vets here (west Michigan) are already giving it as a
yearly in the Spring. It was $18 per horse, which adds up with 10
critters, but we feel it was well worth it.

I called my local vet and he said to just wait til next year. I then
called a big equine only clinic in Salt Lake City (about 30 miles away
from me) and they said that they highly suggest people vaccinate now
since it is in Colorado.
I'm always looking for a way to save money BUT, this is cheap
insurance compared to a dead horse.
I went out and got mine yesterday and vaccinated all three of our
horses and will give them their booster in three weeks.
My feeling on it is if it's anywhere near you - why not just be safe
than sorry.
Do you think they will start adding this vaccine to the other vaccines
or will it continue to be sold separately?
And is it going to just be a yearly vaccination in the spring?
