    Extractions: Biological Agents Registry ... Downloadable Material Welcome to the NC rabies webpages. Please refer to the links above for additional detailed information. Here is some quick reference information to help protect you from rabies. Rabies is a deadly viral disease that is very common in wildlife in North Carolina. Because of this you should always leave wildlife alone. It is OK to look, or take pictures, but never try to handle wild animals. To learn more about wildlife in North Carolina, see the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission website ( ncwildlife.org animals. Because they may be exposed to rabies, North Carolina law requires dogs and cats to be vaccinated against rabies. Not only does this protect them, but if they are protected against rabies, you will be too. Veterinarians can vaccinate your dog or cat against rabies. To find a veterinarian, see the N.C. Veterinary Medical Assocation's website . If your pet has been properly vaccinated against rabies, but comes in contact with a potentially rabid animal, it should receive a rabies vaccine booster shot within 72 hours of that contact. In North Carolina, and across the United States, the domestic animal that is most commonly infected with rabies is the cat. Cats can also prey on our native wildlife if not supervised. In addition to these risks, there are several very deadly feline diseases (like feline immunodefiency virus or

    Extractions: Rabies is caused by a virus that infects the central nervous system in mammals. It is almost always transmitted through the bite of a rabid animal. The majority of rabies cases in the United States occur in wildlife including raccoons, skunks, foxes and bats. Rabies is invariably fatal, however, effective vaccines are available to protect people, pets and livestock. The National Rabies Management Program was established in recognition of the changing scope of rabies. The goal of the program is to prevent the further spread of wildlife rabies and eventually eliminate terrestrial rabies in the United States through an integrated program that involves the use of oral rabies vaccination targeting wild animals. Since, 1995, Wildlife Services (WS) has been working cooperatively with local, State, and Federal governments, universities and other partners to address this public health problem by distributing oral rabies vaccination (ORV) baits in targeted areas. This cooperative program targets the raccoon variant, canine variant in coyotes and a unique variant of gray fox rabies. Last Modified: November 28, 2007

The highest risk countries for travelers include Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, India, Mexico, Nepal, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand, and Viet Nam. In Thailand, between 200-300 human rabies deaths are reported annually with 95% due to dog bites. A survey of 1,882 foreign travelers in Thailand determined that 1.2% had a history of dog bite and 8.7% experienced a dog lick during their stay. Other animals that can spread rabies include bats, cats, skunks, racoons, foxes, jackals, mongooses, and wolves. It is recommended that all unvaccinated individuals with animal bites receive immediate treatment with human rabies immune globulin (HRIG) injected into and around the wound followed by rabies vaccination. Two types of rabies vaccine are now available. The original human diploid cell vaccine (HDCV) and a new purified chick embryo culture vaccine (PCEC). After exposure, five doses of either rabies vaccine must be given into a muscle (intramuscularly) over a one month period. While this treatment should be adequate to prevent the development of rabies, treatment can be simplified if rabies vaccine is given prior to exposure. Prior vaccination may also offer some degree of protection in cases when treatment after an animal bite may be unavoidably delayed.

    Extractions: Advanced Search Disease Control and Environmental Epidemiology Division Rabies Rabies is a preventable viral disease of mammals most often transmitted through the bite of a rabid animal. The vast majority of rabies cases reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) each year occur in wild animals like raccoons, skunks, bats, and foxes. Domestic animals account for less than 10% of the reported rabies cases, with cats, cattle, and dogs most often reported rabid. In Colorado, the primary reservoir for rabies is the bat. Instances of rabies among other wild and domestic animals are rare. Rodents and lagomorphs (hamsters, guinea pigs, squirrels, rabbits, and hares) have never been positive for rabies in Colorado and are rarely positive anywhere in the country. The last reported cases of rabies occurred in Colorado in the following animals: dog (2003 - imported from Texas), cat (1985), raccoon (1963), fox (2005), skunk (1994), and human (1931). The last case of dog rabies acquired in Colorado occurred in 1974. Rabies virus infects the central nervous system, causing encephalopathy and ultimately death. Symptoms of rabies in humans are initially nonspecific, consisting of fever, headache, and general malaise. As the disease progresses, neurological symptoms appear and may include insomnia, anxiety, confusion, slight or partial paralysis, excitation, hallucinations, agitation, hypersalivation, difficulty swallowing, and hydrophobia (fear of water). Death usually occurs within days of the onset of symptoms.

Aspen died in December of 1998 to prove that he did not have rabies. Had there been an approved rabies vaccine and quarantine period in this country for skunks, Aspen would still be alive and well and brightening the Mills home. You can read Aspen's story on our background page. When you ask the average American what their thoughts are on skunks you get descriptions like: This statement, with its misconceptions and misinformation , could not be further from the truth! In fact, wild skunks prefer to avoid contact with humans and other animals. They are very quiet, non-aggressive, solitary creatures, willing to live and let live. It is true that they can spray, if they feel that they are in danger. It is also true that if one gets sprayed by a skunk, they stay "fragrant" for quite some time. Skunks do not want to spray, however, and give plenty of warning before doing so. They only spray as a very last resort. Skunks can contract rabies, and so can any other unvaccinated mammal. They are no more prone to rabies than any other mammal. Wild skunks are an important part of our ecosystem. They could be called "Nature's Sanitation Engineers". They rid the environment of rats, mice, cockroaches, harmful garden pests (snails, grubs, all insects, gophers, moles), even poisonous animals (rattlesnakes, black widow spiders, scorpions), and "road kill" (which can cause accidents and spread disease).

    Extractions: Swiftwater, PA REASON: Aventis Pasteur is recalling four lots of Imovax Rabies, Rabies Vaccine (Human Diploid Cell) that were distributed in the U.S. This is a precautionary measure stemming from the discovery through routine testing of a non-inactivated production strain of virus in a single product lot, which was not distributed. As a special safeguard, Aventis Pasteur initiated the voluntary recall in the U.S. and abroad of distributed rabies vaccine lots produced during the same time period. The lots being recalled passed all release tests, including testing to confirm the absence of live virus. The firm is requesting that the use of these lots be immediately discontinued and returned to the manufacturer. The information in this listing reflects CBER's best efforts to communicate information that has been reported to FDA. Its accuracy and comprehensiveness cannot be guaranteed. Updated April 2, 2004

    http://www.mckinley.uiuc.edu/handouts/rabies_series.html
    
    Extractions: Rabies is an acute viral disease that can be transmitted to humans by contact with the saliva of an infected animal. Human clinical rabies has a variable incubation period followed by a neurological illness that can lead to death. HOW IS RABIES TRANSMITTED? By the bite of an infected animal. (It should be noted that petting a rabid animal or contact with its blood, urine, or feces is not an exposure and does not require preventive measures.) By a scratch, abrasion, mucous membranes or open wound coming in contact with infectious material (i.e., saliva or neural tissue of a rabid animal.) By the airborne route. (There are a few documented cases of rabies being contracted in caves where bats reside and in laboratories that work with the virus.) By human-to-human contact (e.g., a corneal transplant from an unknown infected individual). WHICH ANIMALS TRANSMIT RABIES? In the U.S., (except Hawaii, which is rabies-free) consider the following as suspect: dogs, cats, ferrets, skunks, raccoons, foxes, most other carnivores and bats. Occasionally livestock and rodents such as woodchucks and beavers may be suspect; consult with local public health officials. Bites of squirrels, hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils, chipmunks, rats and mice almost never require anti-rabies post-exposure treatment. RABIES VACCINE

    Extractions: "People and Animals in a Caring Community" HOME Bats Canine-Wild Animal Hybrid Fact Sheet Rabies ... Pima County Health Dept. Rabies Rabies is an infectious viral disease that affects the nervous system of humans and other mammals. People get rabies from the bite of an animal infected with rabies (a rabid animal). Any wild mammal, like a raccoon, skunk, fox, coyote or bat can have rabies and transmit it to people. Dogs and cats, and other domestic animals can also transmit rabies. It is also possible, but quite rare, that people may get rabies if infectious material, such as saliva, from a rabid animal, gets directly into their eyes, nose, mouth or a wound. Because rabies is a fatal disease, the goal of the Pima Animal Care Center is, first, to prevent human exposure to rabies through education and, second, to respond to any cases in which exposure to a rabid animal might have occurred and impound the animal for quarantine or laboratory testing to determine whether or not exposure occurred.

    Extractions: Rabies Rabies is a deadly viral disease that is fatal in humans unless the victim receives prompt medical attention. Fortunately this disease has become fairly rare in the U.S. (36 cases since 1980). The reasons for this decline are the widespread publicity this disease has received and the effective measures taken to prevent it. The rabies virus is transmitted from the saliva of infected animals. This happens most often from a bite, although it can also occur from a scratch. Very rarely it is transmitted from saliva contact with broken skin or mucous membranes or from inhalation of aerosolized bat feces. About 40,000 people receive post-exposure treatment each year after contact with known or possibly rabid animals. Although the rabies virus can infect just about any mammal, it is most frequently found in raccoons, skunks, bats, foxes and coyotes, and occasionally in cattle and unvaccinated cats and dogs. In 1996, 7,124 cases of rabies in animals were reported in the U.S. including the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. Raccoons were the most frequently reported rabid wildlife species (50.4% of all animal cases during 1996), followed by skunks (23.2%), bats (10.4%), foxes (5.8%), and other wild animals, including rodents and lagomorphs (2.1%). See figures below for distribution of rabies in the most important animal reservoirs. We tend to think of skunks, raccoons, foxes, coyotes, dogs and cats as being the major source of human rabies in the U.S. However, since 1980, 22 out of 36 cases were caused by insectivorous bats. The most recent case was in Virginia, in December of 1998. In over half the cases, the victim wasn't even aware of having had contact with a bat. In less than half the cases, the victim recalled seeing a bat, but wasn't aware of being bitten or scratched. (Insectivorous bats have small, needle-like teeth and claws. Consequently, bites and scratches easily go undetected.)
