^^ this link from Merck gives all the epidemiology of the virus- above my pay grade. But does discuss the respiratory and vascular problems, the ability of dogs to be a symptomatic and carry it and fruit bats… of course. Maybe a moar smart anon could see something worthy in it?
“ Since its release in 2012, the Equivac HeV vaccine has been administered to more than half a million horses throughout Australia.
The focus will be on the marketing and promotional material Zoetis produce, with the applicant alleging the company “made representations including; There was a serious risk of horses contracting Hendra virus in all areas of Australia in which flying foxes were present; The vaccine had no serious side-effects; and all horses in Australia should be treated with the HeV vaccine.”
Class members also allege that from 10 August 2012 to 20 March 2018 their horses suffered side effects from the HeV vaccine and as result, suffered loss or damage, including “diminution in the financial value of the horse, veterinary treatment expenses, loss of income generated by the horse, loss of opportunity to gain income from the horse and the replacement value of the horse.”
A sample class member, has also been identified in relation to a claim that the HeV vaccine was not of an “acceptable quality” within the meaning of section 54(2) of the Australian Consumer Law.
Zoetis denies any wrongdoing or liability.
Hendra virus (HeV) is a zoonotic disease (can pass from animals to humans) that is carried by flying foxes, passes on to horses and then to humans.”
