Vaccination Strategies in a Potential Use of the Vaccine against Bovine Tuberculosis in Infected Herds

Abstract: Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is a disease of cattle that represents a risk to public health and causes severe economic losses to the livestock industry. Recently, one of the strategies recommended for reducing the prevalence of the disease in animals is the use of the BCG vaccine, alone or in combination with proteins. It has been shown that the vaccine elicits a strong immune response, downsizes the number of animals with visible lesions, and reduces the rate of infection as well as the bacillary count.

“…Infected animals can suffer reduced productivity, and control measures can burden farmers and governments economically. Additionally, trade restrictions on livestock and livestock products due to bovine tuberculosis concerns can impact international trade relationships [5,46]. Bovine tuberculosis is a zoonotic disease that can be transmitted between animals and humans.…”

“…While cattle (bovines) are considered the primary reservoir for Mycobacterium bovis, other animals like goats, buffaloes, dogs, primates, ferrets, opossums, and even endangered species like the white 2 rhinoceros can also be susceptible to infection [3,4]. In some cases, these animals can contract the disease from contact with infected cattle or contaminated environments [5].…”

“…In animal populations, disease control is achieved through test and slaughter policies in many countries. Although BCG vaccination in cattle is effective [35], and strategies for deployment have been considered [36], the use of vaccines has been constrained in cattle because the use of BCG compromises the TST. Deployment in many countries will probably depend on developing a complementary DIVA test to differentiate infected from vaccinated animals [37].…”

“…Successful DIVA technologies has been developed for animal vaccines like bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR), pseudo rabies, Classical Swine Fever (CSF) etc [24]. Strategies for developing DIVA based vaccines for other diseases like bovine tuberculosis [25,26], avian influenza [27], PPR [28] and bluetongue virus [29] are also under development.…”
