Sorry if this has already been posted. This is an article about a more serious form of EHV-5 with progressive and serious effects.

"A recent study has identified the virus in 64% of nasal samples from young racehorses."

I'd be interested in any other information about this, especially if they look at if vacines are effective in preventing this "strain".

I've been talking about this with my dad. Got new flyer regarding it from my vet this week. Very scary :?
