Journal Title: Revista Eugenio Espejo - Year 2024, Vol 18, Issue 1
Abstract
Rabies is a viral disease preventable through immunization. This disease affects more than 150 coun-tries, causing dozens of deaths, mainly in the continents of Asia and Africa. 40% of cases occur in children under 15 years of age; the dog is the main source of 99% of deaths from rabies. For this reason, rabies disease can be prevented by vaccinating dogs and avoiding bites.
