What to know
- Named after Angara Goth near Karachi, where the syndrome was first described. It is a Pakistani problem before it is anyone else’s.
- Hits growing broilers rather than chicks, which is why the vaccination sits later in the programme than ND or IBD.
- Locally produced vaccines are widely used; discuss source and handling with your vet.
