Apparently we are on the verge of a Pigeon Fever Vaccine?
There is going to be a presentation from these people at a horse group in our area.
Boehringer-Ingelheim, developers of the Pigeon Fever vaccine.

Luckily, I did get more information on the upcoming Pigeon Fever Vaccine!!
My research led me to a man in Oregon that has been working to develop this vaccine. His product should be available for distribution by Colorado Serum in about 10 months.
However, he advised yesterday that another company, Boehringer-Ingelheim (mentioned by Laurie Sweeney) should have a vaccine available in 1 month. Young was contacted by B-I for information while he was in process, only to develop their own version of the vaccine. While their vaccine will be available sooner (important), Dr Young's will be more impactful and less expensive.
