Veterinary Public Health and Rabies Control recommends that veterinarians vaccinate horses against West Nile virus. Veterinarians also recommend West Nile virus vaccination to their horse clients. Their financially well off clients often follow the veterinarian’s recommendations. However, California horse owners in general, have been slow to vaccinate due to the expense and the lack of equine cases in the past.
