Re: [Felvtalk] PUREVAX FELV vaccine
it is definitely considered the safest on the basis of its delivery system--has no adjuvant, which is still (i think) considered the main culprit in injection-site sarcomas. purevax vaccines are more expensive than others, but also do have a very good reputation. but that doesn't necessarily mean anything, so i'll do some searches: remember that vets don't have much more pharmaceutical education than do human docs, so unfortunately get more of their information from drug company detail people, NOT an unbiased source at all. i vaguely recall, however, that there was a study a year or two back that compared the efficacy of the various FeLV vaccines? am i just being delusional? anyone?
