These are animal vaccines. None of them is a vaccine for people. Every product on these pages is authorised for the animal species named in its row, by the UK Veterinary Medicines Directorate. A product licensed for cattle or poultry says nothing about whether protection exists for a person, and several of these viruses do not infect people at all.
