Abstract
Debbie, J. G. (N.Y. State Dept. of Health, Albany, N.Y. 12201), M. K. Abelseth and G. M. Baer. The use of commercially available vaccines for the oral vaccination of foxes against rabies. Am J Epidemiol 96: 231–235, 1972.—Forty of 53 (78%) red foxes (Vulpes fulva) were successfully vaccinated by placing 1 ml of commercial ERA vaccine directly into the mouth. Attempts to vaccinate foxes orally using an inactivated rabies virus and another commercially available modified-live-virus vaccine failed. Immunization with ERA vaccine was successful only when the vaccine titer was ≥ 103.4 MICLD50/0.03 ml.Keywords
