complete recovery, it causes significant loss of productivity in the herds affected due to the
costs of treatment and considerable impact on afflicted animals, including blindness. This
research is focused on the details, such as risk factors, pathogenesis, etiology, clinical signs
prevention, transmission, and treatment, which animal handlers should be aware of to
minimize the harm caused by IBK. Vaccination does not ensure lifelong immunity and not
prevent a primary and reinfection of the cattle. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the cattle in a
healthy body condition to assure a high immunity level, which helps the body to defend itself
against the disease. This study is based on scientific articles from different magazines. The
purpose of the research is to learn more about IBK and how to handle it. IBK seems to be
hardly avoidable, but with right herding techniques it is possible to prevent huge outbreaks of
the disease.
