Abstract

Multiple commercial vaccines are available with the goal of decreasing risk and severity of bovine respiratory disease complex (BRDC). The objective was to perform a systematic review of published literature and meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy of vaccinating cattle with available viral vaccine antigens to mitigate the effects of BRDC compared to unvaccinated controls.
