The BVD-virus-infection is at present the economically most important disease of bovine animals. A control program requires to take into consideration the given epidemiological facts. Sufficient diagnostic examination procedures are available for estimation of the infection taking place in a herd. An effective preventive measure prior to the infection as well as the quick limitation of an already existing infection taking place consists in a consequent vaccination program. Pre-condition for the vaccination program is the attention to a strict indication of vaccines available, the detailed information of the animal owner as well as taking into consideration the cost-profit-proportion of the envisaged control measurements.
