  • Title: Marek's disease in turkeys: lack of protection by vaccination.
    Author: Elmubarak AK, Sharma JM, Witter RL, Sanger VL.
    Journal: Am J Vet Res; 1982 Apr; 43(4):740-2. PubMed ID: 6280536.
    Abstract:
    Herpesvirus of turkeys, a highly effective vaccine against Marek's disease (MD) in chickens, was ineffective in protecting turkeys against MD. Another tissue-culture attenuated vaccine virus also protected chickens, but not turkeys, from MD. Intact and immunosuppressed turkey poults inoculated with herpesvirus of turkey developed a persistent viremia, but did not have detectable gross or microscopic lesions.
