I talked to my friend today who's hubby is a vet. 2 horses have died, 1 other is sick but he thinks it will recover. The sick one apparently got the initial vac but not the 2 week follow up. Pass it along if any of you have contacts in Central San Joaquin Valley.

Thanks, Diane. I have about 35 horses in the central valley, all have been vaccinated. I'll double check tomorrow on the boosters. Scary stuff.
