Unfortunately it won’t be available to us until 2021 but I am still thankful!
The study, “Treating insect-bite hypersensitivity in horses with active vaccination against IL-5,” was published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology.
This is going to make so many horse lives so much better. Sweet itch is an awful thing for a horse to deal with.
I have a mini that has terrible sweet itch. This gives me hope that we can make him better! So glad to hear this.
I saw that article too! So exciting for so many horses! We are having our worst bug year in recent history - I posted on FB, and a bunch of people are all talking about all the itching, hives, summer sores, and general misery this year. Hoping this vaccine is available asap (I read the earliest would be 2021?).
I know, I hope they can get it out before 2021! I’m so excited, I have spent a fortune on my 2 and they are still uncomfortable to say the least!
I wonder if some vets will be willing to get it overseas and “off label” it.
