A new video that clearly explains the concept of antigenic drift in the Equine Influenza Virus (EIV) over time has been released. It is helpful in understanding the same concept in Human Influenza Virus. This video has been made by Merck Animal Health in the US and does advocate the use of their vaccine range. These vaccine products are not available in Australia or New Zealand. The video is intended for veterinarians and horse owners in the US. This is not intended to be an endorsement of Merck Animal Health, but the video is nicely done. The video runs for just under 4 minutes.
