Leptospirosis
Leptospirosis is a bacterium that infects both cattle and humans, affecting beef and dairy cattle.
It is spread via the urine and reproductive tracts of farm animals, wild-life, pigs and rats.
Leptospirosis can live in the environment for months, especially in stagnant water.
The disease infects cows and humans through contact with nose, eyes, mouth or broken skin. And, can be spread from cows to humans, causing severe flu-like symptoms which may persist for weeks to months.
Leptospirosis can affect the reproductive health of a cow by causing stillbirths, abortions and the birth of weak calves. It can also reduce the fertility of heifers.

Pestivirus
Pestivirus, also called Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus (BVDV), is a highly contagious virus. In fact, up to 90% of herds have animals with evidence of past infection.
Pestivirus is often related to other cattle diseases (e.g. calf scours and pneumonia) as it can affect the immune system of infected animals.
The disease is spread mainly by persistently infected cattle coming into close contact with susceptible cattle.
Milking and intensive calf-rearing practices can facilitate spread in dairy cattle.
Pestivirus can reduce reproductive performance by causing reduced conception rates, ‘slipped’ pregnancies, mid to late-term abortions, and congenital abnormalities.
Vibriosis is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by a bacterial infection. Bulls are responsible for the introduction and spread of bacteria in a herd, and infected bulls will not show any visible signs.
Vibriosis is still a common infection in Australian beef and dairy herds and when introduced to a herd, the disease spreads rapidly as cows and heifers in such herds have no immunity.
The disease is a major cause of infertility and abortion in cattle, and is easily prevented through vaccination of bulls.
