Mishchenko V.A., Mishchenko A.V., ChernykhO.Yu.

Summary. Recently, cases of respiratory pathology in newborn calves, aged 1-5 days, were registered in a number of large dairy farms. Authors conducted epizootic survey and clinical examination of imported from other countries highly productive cattle of dairy and beef breeds. Imported heifers were vaccinated live virus vaccine containing viruses IRT and viral diarrhea. Authors registered late abortions (7-8 months), stillbirths and birth of nonviable calves and calves with birth characteristic of infectious bovine rhinotracheitis sign – "red nose". Antibodies to IRT were registered in serum samples from calves which didn’t receive colostric milk.

Keywords: newborn calves, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis, viral diarrhea, respiratory diseases, antibodies, immune deficiencies, abortion, stillbirth, virus vaccine, intrauterine infection, heifers, metabolic disorder.
