Both modified '''live and inactivated adenovirus [[vaccines]]''' have been developed and evaluated for use in cattle and they should be administered when maternal antibodies have waned, but 2 to 3 weeks before calves from different places are assembled under stressful conditions.

Vaccination has not eliminated infection entirely, but has resulted in the '''reduction in disease incidence and treatment costs'''.
