  • The Most Effective Tool to Prevent Human Brucellosis
    Chapter 13 Control of Animal Brucellosis — The Most Effective Tool to Prevent Human Brucellosis Marta Pérez-Sancho, Teresa García-Seco, Lucas Domínguez and Julio Álvarez Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/61222 Abstract The World Health Organization classifies brucellosis as one of the seven neglected en‐ demic zoonosis which contribute to the perpetuation of poverty in developing coun‐ tries. Although most of the developed countries are free from this important zoonosis, brucellosis has still a widespread distribution in the Mediterranean region, the Middle East, Central Asia, and parts of Latin America, making it a global problem. Nearly half a million of new cases of human brucellosis are reported each year around the world, in which animals (or products of animal origin) are the most likely source of infection. Brucella melitensis, the main etiologic agent of small ruminant brucellosis, is the most prevalent specie involved in cases of human disease in most parts of the world. Additionally, Brucella abortus (main responsible of bovine brucellosis) and Bru‐ cella suis (the most common etiological agent of porcine brucellosis) are often associat‐ ed with human brucellosis. In animal production, brucellosis has a strong economic impact due not only to its direct consequences (e.g., reproductive failures) but also to indirect loses (e.g., trade restrictions). The problem of brucellosis could be considered a clear example of the need for a “One World, One Health” strategy, given that the only approach to achieve its control and subsequent eradication is the cooperation be‐ tween public and animal health authorities.

  • Same Dog Bite and Different Outcome in Two Cases – Case Report
    DOI: 10.7860/JCDR/2014/9017.4468 Case Report Same Dog Bite and Different Outcome in edicine M ection S Two Cases – Case Report Community GADEKAR RD1, DOMPLE VK2, INAMDAR IF3, ASWAR NR4, DOIBALE MK5 ABSTRACT There is still no cure for rabies and survival from clinical rabies is extremely rare. It is a preventable disease if the post exposure prophylaxis is initiated in time and administered as per WHO guidelines including administration of rabies immunoglobulin. The role of passive rabies immunization products is to provide the immediate availability of neutralizing antibodies at the site of the exposure before it is physiologically possible for the patient to begin producing his or her own antibodies after vaccination. In this case report, the same dog has bitten to a boy and to an adult. Local wound treatment and use of human rabies immunoglobulin as well as gluteal region as a site of bite were the probable reasons for survival of the boy. On the other hand no local wound treatment, no use of rabies immunoglobulin and finger as a site of bite are the probable reasons for death of an adult due to rabies. Keywords: Death, Rabies, Rabies immunoglobulin, Treatment failure CASE REPORT others/unknown (10.2%) [2]. Cats accounted for 1.7% of deaths. A 5-year-old boy from Yavatmal District in Maharashtra State, India The use of rabies immunoglobulin was negligible (1.3%) [2]. was bitten by a pet dog on 7th June 2010, incurring two deep The average incubation period varies from 20-90 days after exposure lacerations on right gluteal region (WHO Class III bite).

  • Professional Guidance for Animal Bites and Rabies Control
    December 6, 2004 MEMORANDUM TO: State Public Health Veterinarians State Epidemiologists State Veterinarians Other Parties Interested in Rabies Prevention and Control FROM: Mira J. Leslie, D.V.M., M.P.H, Co-Chair Compendium of Animal Rabies Prevention and Control Committee SUBJECT: Compendium of Animal Rabies Prevention and Control, 2005 The National Association of State Public Health Veterinarians (NASPHV) is pleased to provide the 2005 revision of the Compendium of Animal Rabies Prevention and Control for your use and for distribution to practicing veterinarians and officials in animal control, public health, wildlife management and agriculture in your state. This cover memo summarizes the changes that were made to the document this year. COMPENDIUM CHANGES The section Principles of Rabies Prevention and Control (formerly Part II) is now Part I of the document and Recommendations for Parenteral Rabies Vaccination Procedures is Part II. Part III: Rabies Vaccines Licensed and Marketed in the U.S., 2005 has been updated. The following feline combination vaccine products are no longer available: IMRAB 3 + Feline 3; IMRAB 3 +Feline 4; PUREVAX Feline 3/ Rabies+LEUCAT; ECLIPSE 3 + FeLV/R; ECLIPSE 4+FeLV/R; Fel-O-Guard 3+ FeLV/R; and Fel-O-Guard 4+FeLV/R. The definition of a rabies exposure in Part I.A.1. has been clarified and a new sentence is added to direct questions concerning possible rabies exposures to local and state public health authorities. During 2004, there were two recognized importations of rabid dogs into the United States, one from Puerto Rico (mongoose rabies variant that is readily transmitted dog-to-dog) and one from Thailand (canine rabies virus variant).

  • Interim Clinical Considerations for North American Companion-Animal Vaccination Practice During the COVID-19 Pandemic Richard B
    Interim clinical considerations for North American companion-animal vaccination practice during the COVID-19 pandemic Richard B. Ford, DVM, MS, DACVIM, DACVPM (Hon), lead editor, 2017 AAHA Canine Vaccination Guidelines Link V. Welborn, DVM, DABVP, CCRT, chair, 2017 AAHA Canine Vaccination Guidelines Laurie J. Larson, DVM, task force member, 2017 AAHA Canine Vaccination Guidelines Amy Stone, DVM, PhD, chair, 2020 AAHA/AAFP Feline Vaccination Guidelines In the face of the global coronavirus pandemic, and as emphasis on social distancing and sheltering-in- place continue to limit client and patient access to routine veterinary care, the following considerations have been developed to address vaccination protocols for dogs and cats seen in clinical practice. At the time of this writing, it is not possible to predict when exposure risk for humans to the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 will end. Therefore, it is the responsibility of the individual veterinarian to determine when conventional vaccination schedules can be reinstated for the population of patients seen in the practice. If pets are presented for vaccinations that are deemed a priority, other wellness care, including additional vaccinations as appropriate, could be provided as long as there is not an increased risk of coronavirus exposure for people. General considerations • The health and safety of veterinary personnel and clientele during the course of the COVID-19 pandemic is a priority. Therefore, amended vaccination schedules for dogs and cats should be considered. • The impact of social distancing and self-imposed travel restrictions on exposure risk of dogs and cats to infectious disease is not known. However, it can be assumed that certain groups, based on age, geography, and/or environment, do have sustained risk that justifies priority consideration for vaccination (see tables below).
