Nobivac Myxo, being Shope Fibroma Virus, is obviously not homologous and timing of its use is critical. The vaccine should be administered at the time of maximum exposure and this varies seasonally with the time of emergence of the arthropod vector (usually mosquitoes). Duration of immunity is given on the Data Sheet as six months, not as long as with homologous vaccines, so the vaccine is usually administered twice yearly, in May and September but this may have to be varied with changes in climate and the reasons for your protocol should be adequately discussed and explained with the owner in advance (See the Data Sheet). | Nobivac Myxo, being Shope Fibroma Virus, is obviously not homologous and timing of its use is critical.
