Fencovis is the most recent addition to the well-established Boehringer Ingelheim cattle vaccine range. It is licensed to prevent calf scour caused by bovine rotavirus and Escherichia coli K99, to reduce the incidence and severity of scour caused by bovine coronavirus, and to reduce faecal shedding in scour caused by bovine rotavirus and bovine coronavirus.

Fencovis combines killed antigen with an oil-free adjuvant to deliver optimal safety and efficacy. It comes as a ready-to-use injection available in 1, 5 and 25 dose packs.

In this podcast, veterinary surgeon Ali Haggerty, who has recently completed a Research Masters into the failure of passive transfer and colostrum quality in dairy calves and Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health ruminant vet advisor Becca Cavill, explore some of the preventative steps around colostrum management that would be useful to discuss with clients to help reduce the risk of disease, in particular scour, in calves.
