my understanding is to do the second shot 3-4 weeks after the first... my question is, is 20 days after the first shot to soon...??

my vet will be leaving for an extended vacation on day 21...

and do you see in the future that we will be able to give this vaccine to our animals like the 3way / flu/rhino...

thanks Ann

Probably not Ann but it is not studied.

I think once it gets approval it will be combined with the other encephalitis shots as it is likely to have the same distribution.

I know this is a little late (I just joined). I am in Tennessee. I had my vet come out last spring for coggins and he vacinated for WNV as well. He allowed me to pick up the vacine for the booster at his office and give it myself. Maybe you should suggest to your vet that you can give the booster.
