: Immunizations and parasite challenges of cattle were performed at the Moredun Research Institute (MRI) under Home Office licence 70/7914. Ethical approval was obtained from the MRI Animal Welfare and Ethical Review Body (E12/18).

All experiments were carried out in accordance with the relevant guidelines and regulations.
