Development and Challenges in Animal Tuberculosis Vaccination. [PDF]
Pathogens, 2020 Vaccination with Bacillus Calmette–Guérin (BCG) constituted a major advance in the prevention of human tuberculosis (TB) in the beginning of the past century. BCG has also a clear potential for use in animals and, in particular, in the main domestic species subjected to TB control programs, cattle.
