Rabies in Asia: The Classical Zoonosis

  • Chapter
  • First Online:

Part of the book series: Current Topics in Microbiology and Immunology ((CT MICROBIOLOGY,volume 365))

Abstract

Rabies remains a constant threat to humans throughout much of Asia. The dog is the main reservoir and vector with wildlife playing a very minor role. No Asian country or region has been declared rabies free by WHO in over two decades and there is evidence of canine rabies spread to new regions during the past 10 years. We now have the knowledge and technology to control canine rabies. The main barrier in managing this costly endemic is lack of motivation by authorities to address this issue along with regional inability of public health and livestock (agriculture) officials to tackle this issue in cooperation and coordination. Rabies is one of the first recognized zoonoses and a model for a true “One Health” management goal where human; veterinary, and government officials must work together in harmony to defeat this disease.
