Rabies in animals.
Rabies.
Rabies is a vaccine-preventable viral disease that occurs in more than 150 countries and territories.
Dogs are the leading source of human rabies deaths, contributing up to 99% of all rabies transmissions to humans.
Interruption of transmission is feasible through vaccination of dogs and prevention of dog bites.
The infection causes tens of thousands of deaths each year, mainly in Asia and Africa.
Globally rabies causes an estimated cost of US$ 8.6 billion per year
40% of people bitten by rabies-suspect animals are children under 15 years of age.
Immediate and thorough wound washing with soap and water after contact with a rabies suspect animal is crucial and can save lives.
Multi-sector involvement and One Health collaboration, including community education, awareness programs, and vaccination campaigns, are essential.
WHO is leading the "United Against Rabies" collective to drive progress toward "Zero human deaths from dog-mediated rabies by 2030."
Rabies is a vaccine-preventable viral disease. Once clinical symptoms appear, rabies is virtually 100% fatal. In up to 99% of cases, domestic dogs are responsible for transmitting the rabies virus to humans. However, rabies can affect domestic and wild animals. It is transmitted to people and animals through bites or scratches, usually through saliva.
Rabies is an immunopreventable disease. Vaccination of dogs is the most cost-effective strategy to prevent rabies in people. Vaccination of dogs reduces deaths attributable to dog-mediated rabies and the need for PEP as part of the care of the dog bite patient.
Education about dog behavior and bite prevention for children and adults is an essential extension of a rabies vaccination program and can decrease both the incidence of human rabies and the financial burden of treating dog bites.
