- W3139955777 abstract "SUMMARY The prevalence of canine and human rabies in Thailand has decreased significantly during thelast decade. This has been associated with an increasing number of human post-exposuretreatments. Educational efforts, mass vaccination of dogs and cats and the use of safe andeffective vaccines have all made an impact. The proportion of fluorescent antibody positivedogs, among those examined for rabies averaged 54% indicating that rabies is still a majorpublic health threat. Canine rabies vaccination is not usually performed in animals !3 monthsold. However, this study revealed that 14% of rabid dogs were !3 months old and 42% were%6 months old. This is the age group most likely to interact with humans and other dogs.Our study also supports the World Health Organization’s recommendation that observingsuspected rabid dogs for 10 days is an adequate and safe practice. INTRODUCTION CaninerabiescontrolmeasureswerefirstattemptedinThailand in 1913 but have not been effective due toeconomic, cultural and religious constraints [1].Human rabies in Thailand is almost always trans-mitted from dogs. Only in the last two decades has asignificant reduction of the number of human casesbeen achieved. There were 370 reported human rabiesdeaths in 1980 (0–78}100000) but only 75 in 1996(0–12}100000). Over 90% of these victims had notbeen vaccinated and 50% were children !14 yearsold.Community or stray dogs and, to a lesser extent,unvaccinated pet dogs are responsible for sustainingendemic rabies in Thailand. An estimate of the totaldog population, carried out on the basis of randomsampling in 1992, was 7–6 million equivalent to 1 dogper 6–7 persons or 0–7 dogs per household. This" @default.
