title: Efficacy of an Australian Babesia bovis vaccine strain in Malawi.
abstract: Three calves vaccinated with the Australian Ka strain of Babesia bovis were fully protected against experimental infection with an isolate from a farm on which four of 210 vaccinated cattle had died from B bovis infection. A degree of cross protection against the isolate was demonstrated in one calf which had been infected previously with Babesia bigemina.
