What is Rabies? Misconceptions Rabies incubation in humans is anywhere from 10 days to several years. Rabies is a virus that any mammal can contract. In almost all cases the virus is passed on through a bite from the infected animal. Rabies is a potentially fatal disease unless treated quickly. There are many rumors about bats and rabies, one of these rumors is that all bats carry rabies. Bats are NOT carriers of rabies, they can get rabies, but they die of it just like any other animal. Bats can get the rabies virus, but the incidence of bats and rabies is very low, usually only about one half of one percent of bats tested, test positive for the virus. If you take into consideration that people have a much higher chance of getting attacked by a dog, falling down a flight of stairs, or being struck by lightning and dying than dying of a bat bite you can see that rabies is rare. Chances are even better of winning your state lottery, than getting bitten by a bat with rabies. Here are a few notable diseases reported in 1995 in the United States: Chlamydia, 477,638; Gonorrhea, 392,848; AIDS, 71,547; Hepatitis, 41,000; Lyme Disease, 11,700; Syphilis, 68,953; Salmonellosis, 45,970; Whopping Cough, 5,137; E.

It is caused by the rabies virus, which is present in the saliva of infected animals, and is transmitted through infected secretions (usually through the bite of a rabid animal). Once infection occurs, the virus spreads to the central nervous system and causes inflammation in the brain (acute encephalitis). Rabies is almost always fatal. Effective pet vaccinations, postexposure treatment for humans, and effective animal control have nearly eliminated rabies in dogs in the United States. In parts of the world where vaccinations and postexposure treatment are not available, rabies remains a serious health threat for animals and for humans. Rabies kills more than 35,000 people every year, mostly in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.

August 8 DNA vaccines for rabies, rotavirus advance By N. Seppa T "This shows us that a new generation of vaccine technology is working its way forward," says Bruce G. Gellin, an epidemiologist at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tenn. DNA vaccines deliver genetic material encoding compounds designed to alert the immune system to an invading virus. Although a preventive human vaccine against rabies exists, it is expensive and so is usually given only to veterinarians and researchers working with animals. Scientists at Rocky Mountain Laboratories in Hamilton, Mont., which is part of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, have now developed a DNA vaccine at a fraction of the current vaccine's cost. The DNA encodes a glycoprotein found on the rabies virus. In a test on 12 cynomolgus monkeys, the DNA vaccine proved as effective as the commercial one. Eight monkeys received the new vaccine, two were given the standard vaccine, and two remained unvaccinated. After initial vaccination, the two with the standard vaccination showed higher antibody levels than the DNA vaccine group. After a booster shot 6 months later, all those receiving either of the vaccines showed stronger immunity, the researchers report in the August Nature Medicine Seven months after the booster, the monkeys were infected with rabies. All 10 of those that had been vaccinated survived; the two controls died.

Rabies is a virus that is carried in an animal's saliva. Humans and other animals can become infected through a bite or scratch from an animal with rabies, or if the rabies virus comes in contact with an open cut or the moist tissues of the mouth, nose or eyes. Rabies is fatal if untreated. Most of Canada's rabies is carried by wildlife. This makes control difficult and eradication almost impossible. Foxes, skunks, bats and raccoons are the main carriers and pose a continuing threat because they often live close to people. If they infect your farm animals or pets, they may endanger you. Tips for Preventing Rabies Keep your pets under control. Don't let them run free, especially at night.

110. Answers To Questions About Bats And Rabies Careless handling is the primary source of rabies exposure from bats. rabies virus has not been isolated from bat blood, urine or feces, and there is no http://www.batcon.org/rabies.html

Answers to Questions About Bats and Rabies The following information was most recently updated on January 7, 1998. How dangerous are bats? Bat rabies accounts for approximately one human death per year in the United States. Thus, some people consider bats to be dangerous. Nevertheless, dogs which are equally often considered "man's best friend," attack and kill more humans annually than die from bat rabies in a decade. Statistically speaking, pets, playground equipment, and sports are far more dangerous than bats. Clearly, bats do not rank very high among mortality threats to humans. Nevertheless, prudence and simple precautions can save lives. What is rabies, and how is it transmitted? Rabies is an infectious viral disease that invades the central nervous system of humans and other warm-blooded animals. A wide variety of mammals can contract the disease, but it is most often noticed in dogs, cats, foxes, raccoons, skunks, coyotes, bats, and livestock. Worldwide, more than 30,000 humans die of rabies each year, 99% of cases resulting from contact with dogs. In the United States, due to highly successful dog vaccination programs, transmission from dogs is now rare, eliminating the vast majority of human cases. Rabies is nearly always transmitted by bite, though non-bite exposures can result from contact between infected saliva or nervous tissues and open wounds or mucous membranes of the eyes, nose, or mouth. Careless handling is the primary source of rabies exposure from bats.

112. THE BIG SCAM--RABIES VACCINATION A veterinarian exposes the facts on the big rabies Vaccination scam. http://www.naturalrearing.com/ARTICLES/GuestAuthors/RABIESSCAM.html

THE BIG SCAMRABIES VACCINATION By: Dr. John Fudens, D.V.M. I would like to give you, the reader, the truth about the so called required vaccinations, particularly rabies. There are two basic forms of law. One is the legal Constitutional and Common law that this country was founded on, and the other is "colorable" law passed by Administrative agencies/bureaucrats who have been given so called authority to pass laws. Black's Law Dictionary 5 th Edition defines colorable law as "That which is in appearance only, and not in reality, what purports to be, hence counterfeit, feigned, having the appearance of truth." Yes, I study the law, am a paralegal, and have an extensive law library. So any and all mandatory rabies vaccination programs are colorable law, in that they have been passed and mandated upon the pet owning public by certain vested interest groups. Who are these groups? First and foremost are veterinarians, in general, and veterinarian medical organizations. Second are the local animal control personnel, bureaucrats and politicians. What are their reasons? GREED, POWER AND CONTROL. Both these large powerful interest groups stand to benefit greatly by having rabies mandated by colorable law. Veterinarians receive a large percentage of both their gross income and profit from vaccines given in the office. On average vaccines cost 60 to 95 cents per dose and are charged to the client at $15 to $25 per injection and substantially more in the large cities. Therefore, if veterinarians lobby to have a colorable law passed to give rabies vaccine every year that enhances their financial picture.

115. Goat VAccine Trial - Cornell Veterinary Medicine Campaign to provide rabies protection to goats. http://www.vet.cornell.edu/public/goatvaccine/

There are more than two million goats in the United States. However, there is no licensed vaccine in the US to protect goats from rabies. To provide some level of protection, many goat owners can now have their veterinarian vaccinate their goats using a rabies vaccine labeled for use in other species. But these vaccines are not officially approved for goats. Boards of health and fair boards in many communities do not recognize goats as being vaccinated for, or safe from, rabies - whether or not they have been vaccinated with an unapproved rabies vaccine. As a result, some localities across the country have banned contact between goats and the public - during farm tours, at county and state fairs, and at petting zoos. How Goat-Lovers Can Help! Many Thanks to our Supporters! Research goats eating their grain. A Possible Solution - get goats on the label The Cornell College of Veterinary Medicine collaborated with an established vaccine manufacturer to seek United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) approval to extend the label of their currently licensed livestock rabies vaccine to include goats. This effort was generously supported by the goat industry, goat owners and goat lovers and the Department of Agriculture and Markets of the State of New York. The aim of all involved was to protect goats and the public against rabies. The vaccine trial was conducted in 1999 and 2000. If it had been successful, the next step would have been to apply for official licensure and approval for use of this vaccine in goats.

Reportable Disease Programs Legal Resources Laws Regulations Bureau of Animal Health Rabies Information Although bat strain rabies has been known to exist in Massachusetts since the 1960's, a small bat population in the state and infrequent exposures limited the need for widespread awareness and control. The raccoon rabies epidemic beginning in 1992 posed new problems for public health officials. Since raccoons are so prevalant in rural and suburban areas, the potential for a large number of human and domestic animal exposures rose. Rabies is a viral disease that can affect all mammals, including humans. The virus attacks the central nervous system and can be secreted in saliva. Because rabies affects people as well as animals, control of this disease has become a top priority for the Bureau of Animal Health. With the cooperation of the Department of Public Health and the Division of Fisheries and Wildlife, every angle of potential rabies exposures gets covered in order to prevent further rabies infections.

Most people associate rabies with the "mad-dog" syndrome depicted in the movies. However, different animals will be affected differently. Rabies virus is passed in the saliva from an infected animal when it bites another animal or person. Once in the body, the virus travels along the nerves to the spinal cord and brain.
