Shownotes

In this episode, Nichola Pusterla, DVM, PhD, DACVIM, DAVDC-Equine, discusses the new equine herpesvirus type 1 genotype, H752, which was responsible for a 2021 EHV-1 outbreak in Pennsylvania. He reminds veterinarians that they should treat all EHV-1 strains as if they can cause neurologic disease, and he discusses the importance of daily temperature checks for high-risk horses. Finally, he advocates for conducting more research on risk assessment for EHV-1 to help show managers, horse owners and veterinarians better understand how to reduce disease and deaths. “Daily Vet Life” brings equine veterinarians, students and techs short, educational talks from industry leaders.
