Evaluation of an iELISA for detection and quantification of rabies antibodies in domestic dog sera
Vaccine. 2023 Sep 14:S0264-410X(23)01058-7. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.09.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMany rabies endemic-countries have recognized rabies as a public health problem that can be eliminated. As a result, some countries have started implementing small-scale vaccination programs with the aim of scaling them up. Post-vaccination serological monitoring is crucial to assess the efficacy of these programs. The recommended serological tests, the rapid fluorescent focus inhibition test, and the fluorescent antibody virus neutralization (FAVN) are accurate; however, the procedures require considerable experti...

Sick as a dog? The prevalence, politicization, and health policy consequences of canine vaccine hesitancy (CVH)
Vaccine. 2023 Aug 26:S0264-410X(23)01015-0. doi: 10.1016/j.vaccine.2023.08.059. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCanine vaccine hesitancy (CVH) can be thought about as dog owners' skepticism about the safety and efficacy of administering routine vaccinations to their dogs. CVH is problematic not only because it may inspire vaccine refusal - which may in turn facilitate infectious disease spread in both canine and human populations - but because it may contribute to veterinary care provider mental/physical health risks. In a nationally representative survey of US adults (N = 2200), we introduce a novel survey-based instrument ...

Rabies Post-Exposure Prophylaxis, What the U.S. Emergency Medicine Provider Needs to Know
Acad Emerg Med. 2023 May 27. doi: 10.1111/acem.14755. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTApproximately 55,000 patients per year in the United States are exposed to potentially rabid animals and receive rabies post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and these patients commonly present to the emergency department for wound care and PEP. Despite the number of rabies exposures seen in emergency departments each year, there appears to be a knowledge gap among healthcare providers with regard to prescribing and administering rabies PEP. The following review aims to bridge that knowledge gap by discussing the importance of obtaining a compreh...

Canine rabies: An epidemiological significance, pathogenesis, diagnosis, prevention, and public health issues
Comp Immunol Microbiol Infect Dis. 2023 Jun;97:101992. doi: 10.1016/j.cimid.2023.101992. Epub 2023 May 9.ABSTRACTRabies is a zoonotic disease caused by rabies virus of the genus Lyssa virus and family Rhabdoviridae. It affects all mammals and is prevalent throughout the world and endemic in many countries except in Islands like Australia and Antarctica. It is highly fatal, but preventable. Disease causes threat to public health because rabid dogs bite humans, resulting in thousands of deaths every year. Around 59,000 people die every year from rabies in the world. Dogs play a vital role in most of the human exposure in rab...

Progress towards dog-mediated rabies elimination in PR China: a scoping review
ConclusionsThe Chinese government-led, multi-sectoral “One Health” approach to combating rabies and has made significant progress over the past decade. Development and adoption of more cost-effective One Health strategies can achieve more nationally beneficial rabies elimination outcomes. The ambitious target of “Zero rabies deaths by 2030” can be met through establishment of long-lasting herd immunity in dogs by means of dog mass vaccination campaigns, dog population management, epidemiological surveillance and the application of large-scale oral rabies vaccine to eliminate rabies in wild animals coupled with depl...

Evaluation of the efficacy of vitamin C on the immune response after rabies virus vaccine in BALB/c mice
CONCLUSIONS: Our results supported the hypothesis that indicated the immunological improvement of vitamin C to the effectiveness of the inactivated rabies virus vaccination. High dose of vitamin C increases the levels of interferon and interleukin-4 and interleukin-5.PMID:36930474 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202303_31542
