Live Attenuated Vaccines Market Analysis, Growth Opportunities and Recent Trends by Application 2018 to 2025
18th January 2019 – Global Live Attenuated Vaccines Market is segmented by types, applications and manufacturers. An attenuated vaccine market is a type of vaccine produced by lessening the virulence of a pathogen, but still maintaining the state of viability. This process of attenuation initially gets an infectious agent and modifies it in order to make it harmless or less virulent. These vaccines are formed by raising the virus in tissue cultures that will go for less virulent strains. These vaccines are very different from those formed by killing the virus.
In an attenuated vaccine market, live virus particles possessing very low virulence is initially managed. They reproduce further in slow manner. Live attenuated vaccines comprise an adaptation of the living microorganism that has been made a little feeble in the lab so that it doesn’t bring about disease. As it is known that a live constricted immunization is the nearest thing to a characteristic contamination, these vaccines are considered as great "tutors" of the invulnerable framework.
Request a Sample Copy of Live Attenuated Vaccines Market Report @ https://www.millioninsights.com/industry-reports/live-attenuated-vaccine-lav-market/request-sample
They bring about solid cell and antibody reactions and frequently enduring protection with one or two dosages. It is said that attenuated vaccines cannot be employed by immunocompromised individuals. These vaccines help in initiating all the stages of the immune system and it also offers more durable immunity such that boosters are needed less frequently. Other advantages attached with it include its low cost, quick immunity, plus they are quite easy to transport or administer.
It has been anticipated that an advanced live attenuated vaccine may soon gain the potential to prevent a disease. Moreover, they can also be utilized for therapeutic purposes of an existing disease. Live attenuated vaccines Market size on the basis of types spans Measles, Polio, Smallpox, Rotavirus, Tuberculosis, Yellow fever, Varicella zoster, and Others. Market size on the basis of End Users spans hospitals clinics, and healthcare research institutes.
Live attenuated vaccines (LAV) Market size on the basis of product type spans Pneumococcal, Influenza, HPV, Hepatitis, Rotavirus, DTP, Polio, and MMR. Among all, the segment of pneumococcal disease is projected to take over the greatest share of the market globally, the reason being augmented occurrence of pneumococcal infections and the prerequisite for immunizations to avert the frequency of disease. Live attenuated vaccines Market size on the basis of application spans Pediatric, and Adult.

Preparing for the Rabies Mission: Documents, Vaccinations, Flights.
In my last posting, I told how I discovered, applied to, and was accepted for the Mission Rabies project. Well, the paperwork and preparation for a mission like this is considerable.
Before I can travel to Goa and work with the team, Mission Rabies needed a lot of documents.
Sweet, friendly street dogs in Kathmandu
Another Kathmandu angel
Veterinarians and veterinary nurses need to submit a “letter of good standing”.  To get this, I called the New York State Department of Education. They directed me to an internet site with a link to an application form.  I filled out the form, printed it, signed it, and mailed it to the state board. They mailed a letter to Mission Rabies confirming that I am a veterinarian licensed to practice in New York, in good standing.  Done.
Next, I needed proof of rabies vaccination or titer.  When I was a veterinary student, I was vaccinated against rabies before starting my senior year in the clinic.  This was in 1987. In the year 2000, while working for the ASPCA, I had my blood antibody level checked. If the level was too low, the ASPCA would pay for a booster vaccination.  My antibody level was still very high, so there was no need for a booster. Eighteen years later, I have no idea if my antibody level is still high enough to be considered protective.   However, once you become a member of Mission Rabies, they require a booster every two years. Since my last vaccine was well before September 2016, I needed another rabies vaccine regardless of my antibody level.  I went to my doctor, got the booster, and received a typhoid vaccination, on his recommendation. That rabies vaccine made my arm sore for a week.
They also require proof of up-to-date tetanus vaccination. I was given a TDAP (tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis) vaccine in 2016, and this vaccine confers immunity for ten years.  Not a problem.
It’s always a good idea to have travel insurance on a long overseas trip. For Mission Rabies, it’s mandatory. I’m an avid traveler.  In fact, India will be my 40th country that I’ve traveled to. However, I confess that I’ve never purchased travel insurance for any of my trips.  Pretty foolish, I will admit. I mentioned this to my friend Udi in Amsterdam, and he was incredulous. He, too, is a frequent traveler, and he makes sure he’s well-covered when he travels.  Fortunately for me, Mission Rabies offers travel insurance as part of a membership in their sister charity, WVS (Worldwide Veterinary Service). If you become a member of the WVS, you are automatically insured.  It also covers you for days not connected to the mission, if you stay beyond the end of the mission, up to 31 days total. I plan on staying for eight extra days: four and a half in New Delhi and three and a half  in Mumbai. I went ahead and joined the WVS. It’s nice to know that I’m covered for the trip, and the additional days. In fact, I purchased extra insurance, which covers emergency medical transport, just to be on the safe side.
Additional documents required for the trip are a copy of my passport page showing that there’s at least six months of time left on the passport (easy), my flight itinerary (easy), and a copy of my visa. A few years ago, Mark and I were considering traveling to India. In order to get a visa, we had to go to the embassy office here in New York.  We went, and it was a chaotic zoo there, not unlike going to the Department of Motor Vehicles. We ended up abandoning the task. Since then, India has adopted the e-visa program, in which the application is done online. You have to upload a photo of your passport page and a photo of yourself, and fill out an application. You pay by credit card.  They notify you in 72 hours as to whether your application is approved. Mine was approved in less than 48 hours.
As for my flight itinerary: if I book a flight to Goa, there’s a long layover in Mumbai. I’d end up arriving in Goa in the middle of the night, after traveling about 21 hours.  I decided, instead, to leave a day earlier. I arrive in Mumbai at 8:50 p.m. I’m going to stay overnight in Mumbai, and then take a short domestic flight to Goa the next morning, arriving at 12:30.  Much less taxing on the body. The flight to Mumbai is almost 16 hours long. Fortunately, with the flight arriving at 8:50 pm., by the time I clear customs and get to my hotel, it’ll probably be around 10:00 p.m., which is pretty close to my normal bedtime, and should minimize much of the jet lag.  
The main paperwork is done.  The countdown begins.

Rabies in cats
Rabies in cats
Rabies in cats
Rabies in cats: It is a fatal disease that occurs in nearly all warm-blooded animals, although rarely in rodents. In the United States, vaccination programs for cats and other domestic animals have been remarkably effective. This has greatly reduced the risk of rabies in cats, other pets and their owners. 
Ninety percent of cats with rabies are under 3 years old, and the majority are male. Rural cats are at the highest risk for rabies because of the potential for wildlife exposure. 
The major wildlife reservoirs for rabies (with substantial overlap) are the skunk in the Midwest, Southwest, and California; raccoons in New England and the East; foxes in New York, neighboring eastern Canada, Alaska, and the Southwest; and coyotes and foxes in Texas. Bats, which are distributed widely, also carry rabies. 
the main source of infection for humans outside the United States continues to be a bite from an infected dog or cat. In India, for example, a country that lacks an effective rabies control program, it is estimated that several thousand people die of rabies each year. Travelers to countries where rabies is endemic should be aware of the risk of animal bites.
The Cause Of Rabies In Cats
Feline viral rhinotracheitis (FHV-1) and feline calcivirus (FCV) These viruses cause upper-respiratory illnesses. These illnesses are easily spread via exposure to infected cats, either from aerosolized droplets of saliva from an infected cat (as in sneezing or hissing) or from contaminated objects such as water and food bowls.
This virus causes a fatal disease of the central nervous system. It is more frequently reported in cats than any other domestic animal and can be spread to humans or other animals via a bite.
Wild animals also carry rabies. Vaccinating your cat against the disease is required by law in most states. Some states like California do not require it for exclusively indoor cats, but check your local rules.
Symptoms can include fever, inflamed eyes, discharge from the nose and eyes, and mouth and nose sores. These respiratory infections can be serious and even fatal, especially in kittens.
A cat who’s infected may never completely shake the infection— and may continue to infect other cats even after his own symptoms sub- side. Therefore, this vaccination is highly recommended for all cats.
After the first vaccination series, a booster is given at one year, followed by boosters every three years thereafter. The boosters are important because the vaccine doesn’t confer complete immunity from these viruses, but merely lessens the severity of illness if the cat catches one of them.
Symptoms Of Rabies In Cats
General Clinical signs
behavioral changes.
pupil dilation changing to constriction.
drooling and stumbling.
Normally friendly and affectionate animals can suddenly and unexpectedly turn aggressive and agitated when infected with rabies, and normally aloof cats can become very friendly.
Infected animals can die within four days of developing clinical signs. Once clinical signs develop, there is no effective treatment for rabies in cats.
Clinic signs with details:
Signs and symptoms of rabies in cats are due to inflammation of the brain, called encephalitis. During the prodromal (first) stage, which lasts one to three days, signs are quite subtle and consist of personality changes.
Affectionate and sociable cats often become increasingly irritable or aggressive and may bite repeatedly at the site where the virus entered the body. Shy and less outgoing cats may become overly affectionate.
Soon, affected animals become withdrawn and stare off into space. They avoid light and may hide and die without ever being discovered.
There are two characteristic forms of encephalitis: the furious form and the paralytic form. A rabid cat may show signs of one or both.
The furious form
The furious form, or the “mad dog” type of rabies, is the most common. It lasts two to four days.
A rabid cat can actually be more dangerous than a rabid dog, springing up suddenly and attacking people about the face and neck.
Soon the cat develops muscle twitching, tremors, staggering, hind leg in-coordination, and violent convulsions.
The paralytic form
The paralytic form, which occurs in 30 percent of cases, causes the swallowing muscles to become paralyzed.
The cat drools, coughs, and paws at his mouth.
As encephalitis progresses, the cat loses control of his rear legs, collapses, and is unable to get up. Death from respiratory arrest occurs in one to two days.
Because of the rapid course of rabies, paralysis may be the only sign noted.
The incubation period
The rabies virus, which is present in an infected animal’s saliva, usually enters the body at the site of a bite. Saliva on an open wound or mucous membrane also constitutes exposure to rabies. The incubation period in cats can be 9 days to one year, but usually signs appear within 15 to 25 days of exposure.
The virus travels to the brain along nerve networks. The more distant the bite is from the brain, the longer the period of incubation. The virus then travels back along the nerves to the mouth. Entry into the salivary glands occurs less than 10 days before symptoms appear—which means animals can be infectious before they show any signs of rabies (this is unusual but possible).
A few species of animals are more likely to carry rabies than others. Always use caution if you come in contact with bats, skunks or raccoons (especially during the day,since these are normally nocturnal animals), because they are common carriers.These animals can carry rabies but not develop clinical signs. rabies.
Vaccines Against The Rabies In Cats 
The rabies vaccine can be administered to kittens over 12 weeks of age, one year later and then every three years, according to the AAFP recommendations. However, the frequency of vaccination may be governed by state and local laws.
Certain states require cats to be vaccinated against rabies,while others do not.Each locale may also have different rules regarding quarantine of animals who bite humans. Healthy, non vaccinated animals who bite humans may be under observational quarantine for 10 or more days.
There are a number of reasons to give your cat as few vaccinations as possible:
Most vaccines do not prevent infection, but merely lessen the severity should your cat be exposed to any of them.
More important, cats can develop cancer at the site where vaccines are administered, a fairly recent realization by veterinarians. Several of these vaccinations are given as a 3-in-1 injection, which in itself may raise the chance of a deadly reaction at the site.
Although statistics show that only a very few cats develop sarcoma at the injection site, nonetheless vets are now advised to give vaccines as far down a front leg as possible—presumably because if cancer does develop, that part of the leg could be amputated, since immediate surgical removal is recommended.
The injections for FPV, FCV and FHV have routinely been given to cats on a yearly basis. However, the American Veterinary Medical Association reported in 2004 that it was no longer necessary to give these 3 vaccinations on a yearly basis because their protection actually lasted 2 years or longer. Vets now recommend that to protect against vaccine-associated sarcoma, a cat should receive as few injections in a lifetime as possible.
Instead of routinely having your cat vaccinated every year, you and your vet should discuss your cat’s risk factors for infection to come up with a safe plan, based on her specific lifestyle and age.
For example;
there is no valid reason for a cat who lives completely indoors to receive certain vaccines.
Vaccines have been divided into “core” and “non-core,” meaning those that are considered necessary basic vaccinations and those that may be needed depending on a cat’s lifestyle.
However, you still must have a clear discussion with your own vet about the benefits of each vaccine compared with the risks.
Treatment Of Rabies In Cats
If you or your cat are bitten by any animal of unknown rabies status, it is extremely important to vigorously cleanse all wounds and scratches, washing them thoroughly with soap and water. Studies in animals have shown that prompt local wound cleansing greatly reduces the risk of rabies. The wound should not be sutured.
Prophylaxis in a previously vaccinated cat consists of a booster shot, which should be given as soon as possible after exposure. Vaccination is not effective once signs of rabies infection appear.
The introduction of inactivated vaccines grown in human diploid cell cultures has improved the effectiveness and safety of post-exposure vaccination for humans. Assuming the human bite victim did not have a pre-exposure rabies immunization, both passive rabies immune globulin and human origin active diploid cell vaccine should be given.
There is no effective treatment for rabies. Be sure your pet is properly vaccinated. It is important that cats are vaccinated only under the supervision of a veterinarian. Furthermore, a veterinarian can provide legal proof of vaccination should the need arise.
  Public health considerations
Do not pet, handle or give first aid to any animal suspected of having rabies. All bites of wild animals, whether provoked or not, must be regarded as having rabies potential.
If your cat is bitten by a wild animal or a domestic animal whose rabies status is unknown, wear gloves when handling your pet to clean his wounds. The saliva from the animal that is in and around the bite wound can infect a person if it gets into a cut or onto a mucous membrane.
Preventive vaccinations are available for high-risk groups of humans, including veterinarians, animal handlers, cave explorers, and laboratory workers. 
Early laboratory confirmation of rabies in cats or any an animal is essential so that exposed humans can receive rabies prophylaxis as quickly as possible. The animal must be euthanized and his head sent in a chilled (not frozen) state to a laboratory equipped to diagnose rabies.
Rabies is confirmed by finding rabies virus or rabies antigen in the brain or salivary tissues of the suspected animal. If the animal cannot be captured and his rabies status can’t be verified, you need to consult your physician, who may suggest prophylactic vaccinations. 
Whenever you have physical contact with an animal who may conceivably be rabid, immediately consult your physician and veterinarian, and also notify the local health department. Biting cats who have been allowed outdoors and appear healthy should be confined indoors and kept under observation for 10 days. This is true even if the cat is known to be vaccinated for rabies.

These illnesses are easily spread via exposure to infected cats, either from aerosolized droplets of saliva from an infected cat (as in sneezing or hissing) or from contaminated objects such as water and food bowls.
This virus causes a fatal disease of the central nervous system. It is more frequently reported in cats than any other domestic animal and can be spread to humans or other animals via a bite.
Wild animals also carry rabies. Vaccinating your cat against the disease is required by law in most states. Some states like California do not require it for exclusively indoor cats, but check your local rules.
Symptoms can include fever, inflamed eyes, discharge from the nose and eyes, and mouth and nose sores. These respiratory infections can be serious and even fatal, especially in kittens.
A cat who’s infected may never completely shake the infection— and may continue to infect other cats even after his own symptoms sub- side. Therefore, this vaccination is highly recommended for all cats.
After the first vaccination series, a booster is given at one year, followed by boosters every three years thereafter. The boosters are important because the vaccine doesn’t confer complete immunity from these viruses, but merely lessens the severity of illness if the cat catches one of them.
Symptoms Of Rabies In Cats
General Clinical signs
behavioral changes.
pupil dilation changing to constriction.
drooling and stumbling.
Normally friendly and affectionate animals can suddenly and unexpectedly turn aggressive and agitated when infected with rabies, and normally aloof cats can become very friendly.
Infected animals can die within four days of developing clinical signs. Once clinical signs develop, there is no effective treatment for rabies in cats.
Clinic signs with details:
Signs and symptoms of rabies in cats are due to inflammation of the brain, called encephalitis. During the prodromal (first) stage, which lasts one to three days, signs are quite subtle and consist of personality changes.
Affectionate and sociable cats often become increasingly irritable or aggressive and may bite repeatedly at the site where the virus entered the body. Shy and less outgoing cats may become overly affectionate.
Soon, affected animals become withdrawn and stare off into space. They avoid light and may hide and die without ever being discovered.
There are two characteristic forms of encephalitis: the furious form and the paralytic form. A rabid cat may show signs of one or both.
The furious form
The furious form, or the “mad dog” type of rabies, is the most common. It lasts two to four days.
A rabid cat can actually be more dangerous than a rabid dog, springing up suddenly and attacking people about the face and neck.
Soon the cat develops muscle twitching, tremors, staggering, hind leg in-coordination, and violent convulsions.
The paralytic form
The paralytic form, which occurs in 30 percent of cases, causes the swallowing muscles to become paralyzed.
The cat drools, coughs, and paws at his mouth.
As encephalitis progresses, the cat loses control of his rear legs, collapses, and is unable to get up. Death from respiratory arrest occurs in one to two days.
Because of the rapid course of rabies, paralysis may be the only sign noted.
The incubation period
The rabies virus, which is present in an infected animal’s saliva, usually enters the body at the site of a bite. Saliva on an open wound or mucous membrane also constitutes exposure to rabies. The incubation period in cats can be 9 days to one year, but usually signs appear within 15 to 25 days of exposure.
The virus travels to the brain along nerve networks. The more distant the bite is from the brain, the longer the period of incubation. The virus then travels back along the nerves to the mouth. Entry into the salivary glands occurs less than 10 days before symptoms appear—which means animals can be infectious before they show any signs of rabies (this is unusual but possible).
A few species of animals are more likely to carry rabies than others. Always use caution if you come in contact with bats, skunks or raccoons (especially during the day,since these are normally nocturnal animals), because they are common carriers.These animals can carry rabies but not develop clinical signs. rabies.
Vaccines Against The Rabies In Cats 
The rabies vaccine can be administered to kittens over 12 weeks of age, one year later and then every three years, according to the AAFP recommendations. However, the frequency of vaccination may be governed by state and local laws.
Certain states require cats to be vaccinated against rabies,while others do not.Each locale may also have different rules regarding quarantine of animals who bite humans. Healthy, non vaccinated animals who bite humans may be under observational quarantine for 10 or more days.
There are a number of reasons to give your cat as few vaccinations as possible:
Most vaccines do not prevent infection, but merely lessen the severity should your cat be exposed to any of them.
More important, cats can develop cancer at the site where vaccines are administered, a fairly recent realization by veterinarians. Several of these vaccinations are given as a 3-in-1 injection, which in itself may raise the chance of a deadly reaction at the site.
Although statistics show that only a very few cats develop sarcoma at the injection site, nonetheless vets are now advised to give vaccines as far down a front leg as possible—presumably because if cancer does develop, that part of the leg could be amputated, since immediate surgical removal is recommended.
The injections for FPV, FCV and FHV have routinely been given to cats on a yearly basis. However, the American Veterinary Medical Association reported in 2004 that it was no longer necessary to give these 3 vaccinations on a yearly basis because their protection actually lasted 2 years or longer. Vets now recommend that to protect against vaccine-associated sarcoma, a cat should receive as few injections in a lifetime as possible.
Instead of routinely having your cat vaccinated every year, you and your vet should discuss your cat’s risk factors for infection to come up with a safe plan, based on her specific lifestyle and age.
For example;
there is no valid reason for a cat who lives completely indoors to receive certain vaccines.
Vaccines have been divided into “core” and “non-core,” meaning those that are considered necessary basic vaccinations and those that may be needed depending on a cat’s lifestyle.
However, you still must have a clear discussion with your own vet about the benefits of each vaccine compared with the risks.
Treatment Of Rabies In Cats
If you or your cat are bitten by any animal of unknown rabies status, it is extremely important to vigorously cleanse all wounds and scratches, washing them thoroughly with soap and water. Studies in animals have shown that prompt local wound cleansing greatly reduces the risk of rabies. The wound should not be sutured.
Prophylaxis in a previously vaccinated cat consists of a booster shot, which should be given as soon as possible after exposure. Vaccination is not effective once signs of rabies infection appear.
The introduction of inactivated vaccines grown in human diploid cell cultures has improved the effectiveness and safety of post-exposure vaccination for humans. Assuming the human bite victim did not have a pre-exposure rabies immunization, both passive rabies immune globulin and human origin active diploid cell vaccine should be given.
There is no effective treatment for rabies. Be sure your pet is properly vaccinated. It is important that cats are vaccinated only under the supervision of a veterinarian. Furthermore, a veterinarian can provide legal proof of vaccination should the need arise.
  Public health considerations
Do not pet, handle or give first aid to any animal suspected of having rabies. All bites of wild animals, whether provoked or not, must be regarded as having rabies potential.
If your cat is bitten by a wild animal or a domestic animal whose rabies status is unknown, wear gloves when handling your pet to clean his wounds. The saliva from the animal that is in and around the bite wound can infect a person if it gets into a cut or onto a mucous membrane.
Preventive vaccinations are available for high-risk groups of humans, including veterinarians, animal handlers, cave explorers, and laboratory workers. 
Early laboratory confirmation of rabies in cats or any an animal is essential so that exposed humans can receive rabies prophylaxis as quickly as possible. The animal must be euthanized and his head sent in a chilled (not frozen) state to a laboratory equipped to diagnose rabies.
Rabies is confirmed by finding rabies virus or rabies antigen in the brain or salivary tissues of the suspected animal. If the animal cannot be captured and his rabies status can’t be verified, you need to consult your physician, who may suggest prophylactic vaccinations. 
Whenever you have physical contact with an animal who may conceivably be rabid, immediately consult your physician and veterinarian, and also notify the local health department. Biting cats who have been allowed outdoors and appear healthy should be confined indoors and kept under observation for 10 days. This is true even if the cat is known to be vaccinated for rabies.

Rabies in cats
Rabies in cats
Rabies in cats
Rabies in cats: It is a fatal disease that occurs in nearly all warm-blooded animals, although rarely in rodents. In the United States, vaccination programs for cats and other domestic animals have been remarkably effective. This has greatly reduced the risk of rabies in cats, other pets and their owners. 
Ninety percent of cats with rabies are under 3 years old, and the majority are male. Rural cats are at the highest risk for rabies because of the potential for wildlife exposure. 
The major wildlife reservoirs for rabies (with substantial overlap) are the skunk in the Midwest, Southwest, and California; raccoons in New England and the East; foxes in New York, neighboring eastern Canada, Alaska, and the Southwest; and coyotes and foxes in Texas. Bats, which are distributed widely, also carry rabies. 
the main source of infection for humans outside the United States continues to be a bite from an infected dog or cat. In India, for example, a country that lacks an effective rabies control program, it is estimated that several thousand people die of rabies each year. Travelers to countries where rabies is endemic should be aware of the risk of animal bites.
