Groups of eight wild rabbits (2 month old, weighing around 0.8 kg) free from MV and RHDV antibodies, were inoculated at the back by intradermic (i.d.) or subcutaneous (s.c.) route with dierent doses of the vaccine (10 4 , 10 5 , 10 6 pfu of 6918VP60-T2 recombinant virus). Treated rabbits were inoculated (by s.c or i.d. route) with 10 4 pfu of 6918VP60-T2 virus, and clinical signs due to virus infection were compared with those induced in control rabbits, which were vaccinated but not treated with prednisolone (Fig 2, Table 3 ). ./cache/cord-271650-biq0chyn.txt ./txt/cord-271650-biq0chyn.txt
