The poultry industry is the largest source of meat and eggs for human consumption worldwide. However, viral outbreaks in farmed stock are a common occurrence and a major source of concern for the industry. Mortality and morbidity resulting from an outbreak can cause significant economic losses with subsequent detrimental impacts on the global food supply chain. Mass vaccination is one of the main strategies for controlling and preventing viral infection in poultry. The development of broadly protective vaccines against avian viral diseases will alleviate selection pressure on field virus strains and simplify vaccination regimens for commercial farms with overall savings in husbandry costs. With the increasing number of emerging and re-emerging viral infectious diseases in the poultry industry, there is an urgent need to understand the strategies for broadening the protective efficacy of the vaccines against distinct viral strains. The current review provides an overview of viral vaccines and vaccination regimens available for common avian viral infections, and strategies for developing safer and more efficacious viral vaccines for poultry.

“…Newcastle disease (ND) in poultry, contagious caprine pleuropneumonia (CCPP) in small ruminants (goats and sheep), contagious bovine pleuropneumonia (CBPP) and East Coast fever (ECF) in cattle are the diseases most often reported by farmers in Tanzania (Covarrubias, Nsiima & Zezza 2012 ). To counter the impact of such endemic diseases, vaccines are used in livestock to maintain animal health and improve overall production (Roth & Sandbulte 2021 ). In small ruminants (goats and sheep), there is an economic benefit to controlling and potentially eradicating key endemic diseases, such as peste des petits ruminants virus (PPR), which causes high morbidity and mortality in goats and sheep (Jones et al 2016 ).…”

Vaccination is an important disease prevention and control measure; however, vaccine adoption by livestock farmers in Tanzania is still low. This cross-sectional study examined the challenges to vaccine use faced by livestock owners and animal health professionals (AHPs) in Tanzania. A questionnaire was administered to 216 households that kept small ruminants and poultry and 19 AHPs’ data were collected electronically via the survey platform Qualtrics, and descriptive statistics were performed. Households with poultry reported vaccinating mostly against Newcastle disease (91.7%), fowl pox (48.1%) and Gumboro disease (37.0%), whilst households with small ruminants reported contagious caprine pleuropneumonia (62.2%), sheep and goat pox (17.1%), foot-and-mouth disease (7.3%) and peste des petits ruminants (7.3%). The households’ decision to vaccinate was mostly influenced by knowledge of diseases (82.4%), disease history on the farm (69.4%) and vaccine price (63.4%). Most households (54.6%) experienced challenges when purchasing vaccines, including high vaccine cost (78.0%), long distance from vaccine source (61.0%) and vaccine unavailability (21.2%). The findings suggest that improving the knowledge of livestock owners regarding the priority diseases and the benefits of vaccination, establishing more vaccine suppliers, improving vaccine distribution and access and training AHPs and households on appropriate vaccine storage and handling are necessary to improve vaccine adoption and ensure vaccine quality and effectiveness.

“…On the other hand, it occurs at a difficult time when international reports on antibiotic-resistant bacteria are increasing and therapeutic alternatives to combat them are depleting ( 14 , 25 ). The ability of certain countries to produce their own traditional vaccines using circulating local strains ( 23 , 26 ), as well as the low costs of developing and manufacturing them, contribute to this strategic alliance, ensuring the profitability of local producers ( 7 , 27 ). In general, all are viable solutions to protect herds against a diversity of autochthonous pathogenic strains.…”

“…Consequently, the value of these species as a source of food and income increased for millions of people worldwide. The ability to pre-empt numerous infectious diseases not only bolstered profitability but also fostered safe food trade, mitigated animal suffering, reduced zoonotic infection transmission, minimized antibiotic usage, and most importantly, avoided large-scale famines across all instances ( 7 , 8 ).…”
