<p>Multiple doses of vaccine are given to boost the immune response in naïve animals. The second and third immunizations increase the IgG antibody response, leading to the production of more effective antibodies. Repeated immunizations also enhance the affinity of antibodies, resulting in affinity maturation and optimal immune protection.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>If a vaccine is given too soon to an animal with maternally derived antibodies, the antibodies can neutralize the vaccine before it has a chance to evoke an immune response. This can create an immunity gap and prevent the animal from developing proper immunity.</p> Signup and view all the answers
