- Mitigate the severity of clinical signs, gross lesions, and virus shedding caused by Pigeon Herpesvirus (PHV1).
- Alleviate the severity of clinical signs and gross lesions associated with adenovirus (AdV), specifically types 7/E, 2/D, 3/D, and 4/C from subgroup I.
Onset of Immunity: 3 weeks post-vaccination.
