USAPANG RABIES

Need pa ba ng bakuna? usapang rabies hatid ng JG MD Medical Clinic and Animal Bite Center Key factsRabies is a serious public health problem in over 150 countries and territories, mainly in Asia and Africa. It is a viral, zoonotic, neglected tropical disease that causes tens of thousands of deaths annually, with 40% being children under 15.Dog bites and scratches cause 99% of the human rabies cases, and can be prevented through dog vaccination and bite prevention.Once the virus infects the central nervous system and clinical symptoms appear, rabies is fatal in 100% of cases.However, rabies deaths are preventable with prompt post exposure prophylaxis (PEP) by stopping the virus from reaching the central nervous system. PEP consists of thorough wound washing, administration of a course of human rabies vaccine and, when indicated, rabies immunoglobulins (RIG). If a person is bitten or scratched by a potentially rabid animal, they should immediately and always seek PEP care.
