ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein are methods for vaccinating mammals against parvovirus. In one form, a recombinant, replication incompetent vector containing DNA coding for canine parvoviral capsid protein is administered to a dog while the pup's maternal antibodies are still functioning. This acts to prime T-helper cells. A second administration of either canine parvoviral capsid protein, or a construct capable of expressing it, is then administered. The latter administration immunizes the mammal notwithstanding the maternal antibody effect.
