Sleep sickness in horses reported in northwest Iowa
Dr K W Stouder extension veterinarian Iowa State College notes sleeping sickness has appeared in many northwest Iowa communities in a milder form than last year. Early treatment saves nearly all affected horses. Vaccination now is unlikely to help as it requires about six weeks to take effect. Watch horses for sleepiness and call a vet promptly. No cases have involved vaccinated horses to date.
