Abstract
A bovine para-influenza 3 modified live virus vaccine was studied in colostrum-deprived calves. A single dose of vaccine induced antibody responses and afforded protection against experimental challenge. This was evidenced by reduced clinical disease and virus excretion as compared to unvaccinated control calves. The vaccine virus did not spread from vaccinated calves to contact controls.
