Hazard: When scaffolds are not erected or used properly, fall hazards can occur. About 2.3 million construction workers frequently work on scaffolds. Protecting these workers from scaffold-related accidents would prevent an estimated 4,500 injuries and 50 fatalities each year.
The amount of immunoglobulin ingested is also a major determinant of final serum immunoglobulin concentration. A practical rule-of-thumb is to feed 5 to 6% of the calf's body weight within the first 6 hours and repeat the feeding when the calf is about 12 hours old. For an 80 pound calf, this will equate to approximately 2 quarts of colostrum per feeding.
After a few hours or even 24 hours go by, the calf's system will be less able to absorb the im â¦ munoglobins and antibodies provided by the colostrum than he would if he nursed immediately after birth. Without milk at all, a calf may live to around 5 to 6 days before it dies of dehydration.
