Respiratory diseases continue to be a major concern to poultry producers because losses induced by respiratory diseases have significant local and national economic impact to the industry. Protection of poultry by effective prevention and control of diseases is critical to maintain wholesome poultry products, which is the number one animal protein consumed in the United States (US).
