Agriculture Secretary Charles C. Brotius on Monday advised cattle owners to maintain vaccina tions against bovine virus diarrhea (BVD) if they will be exhibiting the animals at shows. BVD is a highly contagious vir al disease that increases mortality in beef and dairy cattle herds. “All cattle for exhibition should be vaccinated against BVD,” Bro sius said. “An appropriate vaccina tion program will minimize risk for all exhibitors.” There are no human health con cerns associated with BVD, which is a disease of bovine animals. It presents no threat to most other species. While BVD has been found in many herds in the United Slates, a new variant, called Type 2 BVD, began to afflict Pennsylvania cattle herds in 1994. Symptoms of the disease may include unusual salivation, diffi culty breathing, high fever, abor tion, diarrhea, and erosions or ulc erations of the mouth and/or cor onary band.
