1. Vaccination for Contagious Diseases Livestock Handling and Vaccine Administration Adapted from the FAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination for Contagious Diseases (2011)

2. Handling and Restraint for Vaccination USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration

3. Safety is first consideration All restraint should be imposed by experienced handlers Use behavioral principles to move and restrain animals Always leave an escape route USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Key Points of Handling

4. Flight Zone, Point of Balance, Blind Spot USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration General Handling

5. Halters – Most common method Equine Stocks – Different from cattle stocks, no head catch – Never enter the stocks with a horse Twitch – Places pressure on a horse’s upper lip USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Equine Handling

6. Chutes – With or without headgates and metal arms ‘Lock ups’ – Dairy operations at the feed bunk USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Cattle Handling

7. Approach slowly, calmly ‘Tipping’ restraint – Set a sheep onto its rump Cupping under jaw and behind head to restrain Cupping under jaw and on dock of tail to move Alleys and gates USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Sheep Handling

8. Tall alleyways, fences A chute with headgates Halter Fitting table or milking stand USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Goat Handling

9. Often placed into a smaller pen Young pigs may be held Snare poles Flags, plastic paddles or panels should be used as primary movement aids Avoid overuse of electric prods USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Swine Handling

10. Vaccine Administration USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration

11. For all species: – Use a new needle for each animal – Dispose of needles appropriately – Do not give multiple vaccinations in the same site on any animal – No more then 10 ml in any one site, and separate injection sites by 4 inches – Check to make sure needle has not punctured a blood vessel USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Vaccine Administration

12. Neck is the preferred injection site for subcutaneous injection Administer intramuscular vaccines in the neck May administer in muscles of the hindquarters USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Equine

13. Subcutaneous or intramuscular injections – In triangular region of the neck Do not inject the upper rump or upper butt USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Cattle

14. Subcutaneous injections in the loose skin of axillary region Intramuscular injections given in the neck muscles USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Sheep

15. Subcutaneous injections: axillary region Intramuscular injections in large muscles along the side of the neck USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Goat

16. Small pigs – Subcutaneous injections: loose flaps of flank skin or behind the elbow Large pigs – Subcutaneous injections in the neck, just behind and below the ear Intramuscular injections: in the neck just behind and below the ear USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Swine

17. Recommended needle sizes are based on: – Species – Age of the animal – Route of administration – Manufacturer recommendation USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Needle Sizes

18. Record Keeping USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration

19. Individual animal or group identification – Devices and number(s) Owner’s name and mailing address Signalment – Species, age, sex, breed Vaccination date USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Vaccination Record

20. Vaccination route and location Vaccine information – Brand or manufacturer – Product name or number – Lot number – Expiration date Withdrawal date (for food-producing animals) USDA APHIS and CFSPHFAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Vaccination of Contagious Disease - Administration Vaccination Record
