Two vaccines are available for vaccinating equines: an inactivated WNV vaccine and a recombinant vaccine that uses canarypox virus to express WNV antigens (44,45). Some of the work that has been done so far involves a recombinant canarypox vaccine (vCP1452) carrying specific HIV genes (env, gag, nef, and pol) with recombinant gp 160. Recombinant canarypox virus vaccine carrying the prM/E genes of West Nile virus protects horses against a West Nile virus-mosquito challenge. |
