dc.description.abstractA single-dose vaccine was successfully developed that is heat-stable and can potentially provide livestock with long-term protection against five diseases: lumpy skin disease (LSD), sheep pox (SPP), goat pox (GTP), Rift Valley Fever (RVF), and peste des petits ruminants (PPR). Once registered, scaling up use will require training farmers and working with government agencies and companies to facilitate licensing, manufacturing, and distribution. The benefits of the vaccine platform have attracted the interest of the biotechnology industry and professional animal health consortia. This project brief provides background, key outputs, and supporting references.en
