In addition, 7 million vaccine doses in May are calculated to the S0s (Kontali Analyse). This shows that the vaccination of S0s has never started this early, partly explained by the favorable water temperatures for vaccination. The S0 vaccination period will stretch into September month, usually with extensive vaccination in the summer months. In 2013 total sales of vaccine doses in July-August were 105 million.

By taking into account the split in vaccination between S0s/S1s in May, the vaccination of S1-2014 ended at 174 million smolts compared to 172.5 million S1s in 2013, or +1 %. According Kontali Analyse, the release of S1s in 2013 ended at 157.5 million smolts.Sales of vaccine against pancreas necrosis (PD) were 13.2 million doses in June, compared to 13.5 million doses in June 2013.Vaccine sales to trout at a stable level of 2.5 million doses in June compared to 2.3 million doses in June 2013.The increase seen in vaccines for marine fish is mainly caused by vaccination of lump fish.
