A 11. Herd-specific vaccines address a specific disease and herd situation. Both types of products are licensed and highly regulated. Conventional vaccines typically take several years to license while many times lab animal (in vitro) challenge tests are developed; whereas herd-specific vaccines can be developed more rapidly to respond to specific needs, using actual field efficacy to demonstrate results.
