title: [Vaccinations in pigs].
abstract: Efficacious and safe gI-negative vaccines are available for vaccination against Aujeszky's disease. An intensive vaccination programme carried out consistently will result in the reduction of virus circulating among pig populations. Combined vaccination and culling of gI-seropositive pigs may lead to eradication of Aujeszky's disease virus in a stock. Vaccination of susceptible gilts, sows and boars against parvovirus infections is advisable. The actual period for which a sow is protected against intra-uterine virus transmission has not been definitely established, so far. The currently used influenza virus vaccines include at least one H1N1 and one H3N2 subtype. These vaccines induce protection in pigs under laboratory conditions. It continues to be questionable, however, whether influenza vaccination is economically justified.
