From ANPA President David Lewis. As you would now be aware the Rota Virus vaccine is in production and the first releases is likely to be in February. The vaccine will be made available first to individuals and clubs that donated funds to support the research into developing of the vaccine.

It will be released in order of the date the donation was made. This list can be seen on the ANRPB website. www.anrpb.org/dmf-donations/ ANPA is a quarter of the way down the list but you will see many of the state fancy clubs come in earlier which will allow you to order through those clubs if you are a member. The key is to get access to the vaccine as early as possible so if you can source it before ANPA’s time then definitely take that opportunity. I urge those clubs to be proactive to get your orders in ASAP so when your turn arrives it can be shipped to you immediately. ANPA will then take an order for those that at that point have not sourced it. If you have any questions please ask.
