RABIES.
RABIES IS A VIRAL INFECTION OF WARM BLOODED ANIMALS, AND IT IS OF IMPORTANCE BECAUSE ITS ZOONOTIC. ZOONOTIC DISEASES ARE PASSED FROM ANIMALS TO MAN AND RABIES IS ONE OF SUCH. RABIES INFECTION USUALLY OCCURS FROM A BITE OF A RABID DOG, THUS IT IS IMPORTANT TO VACCINATE YOUR PETS AT 12WEEKS AND THEN RE-VACCINATE ONCE EVERY YEAR. RABIES INFECTION OCCURS IN DOGS,CATS, RACCOONS,SKUNKS AND BATS. THE RABIES VIRUS HAS A LOT OF RESERVOIRS THAT ARE AREA-SPECIFIC. IN URBAN AREAS, DOGS AND CATS ARE USUAL RESERVOIR, THIS IS WHY ITS IMPORTANT TO VACCINATE YOUR PETS. IN THE WILD, BATS , SKUNKS ARE USUAL RESERVOIRS AND IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WHEN YOU ARE GOING TO AREAS THAT HAVE HIGH BAT POPULATION, TAKE THE PROPHYLACTIC HUMAN ANTI-RABIES IMMUNOGLOBULIN FOR PROTECTION. RABIES IS OF ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE,THUS IT IS BETTER TO PREVENT IT BY VACCINATION AS THERE IS NO TREATMENT FOR RABIES.
