Equine Infection Anemia Cures
"The Coggins' test is for a serious equine virus called equine infectious anemia (EIA). There is no vaccine or cure for EIA, which is also known as "swamp fever" because of the warm, wet regions of the United States in which it is more common.
There are three stages to EIA. The acute stage is when the horse shows the symptoms of the disease, which include fever; listlessness; swelling in the chest, belly or legs; and no appetite. Although, while the infection progresses, he may not show any symptoms at all, and it may take over a month for the horse to test positive on the Coggins' test"
