Rabies In North Carolina
rabies is a disease, caused by a virus, that can infect all mammals,including humans. It disease. rabies can infect any mammal.
http://www.epi.state.nc.us/epi/rabies.html

Extractions: Rabies is a disease, caused by a virus, that can infect all mammals, including humans. It is transmitted through contact with the saliva or nervous tissue of an infectious animalusually through a bite. If an exposed person or animal is not treated quickly, the virus may infect the person or animal and may result in death. Rabies is almost always fatal to animals and people once signs of disease appear. However, immediate treatment by a doctor after exposure, possibly including a post-exposure rabies vaccination, will prevent development of the disease. Rabies can infect any mammal. In North Carolina it is most common in raccoons, skunks, and foxes, and has also been found in dogs, cats, horses, cattle, bats, and other animals. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the number of animals found to have rabies in North Carolina. Because it can be fatal, rabies should be considered extremely dangerous. Therefore, it is important to prevent exposure to the rabies virus whenever possible. The best way to avoid rabies is to stay away from animals that appear sick or act oddly, and avoid contact with strange animals and wildlife. Since people's pets may be exposed to rabies when they come in contact with other animals, pets should be vaccinated by a veterinarian against the disease. To help protect people against rabies, vaccination of dogs and cats is required by law in North Carolina.

Goat VAccine Trial - Cornell Veterinary Medicine
Campaign to provide rabies protection to goats.
http://www.vet.cornell.edu/public/goatvaccine/

Extractions: There are more than two million goats in the United States. However, there is no licensed vaccine in the US to protect goats from rabies. To provide some level of protection, many goat owners can now have their veterinarian vaccinate their goats using a rabies vaccine labeled for use in other species. But these vaccines are not officially approved for goats. Boards of health and fair boards in many communities do not recognize goats as being vaccinated for, or safe from, rabies - whether or not they have been vaccinated with an unapproved rabies vaccine. As a result, some localities across the country have banned contact between goats and the public - during farm tours, at county and state fairs, and at petting zoos. How Goat-Lovers Can Help! Many Thanks to our Supporters! Research goats eating their grain. A Possible Solution - get goats on the label The Cornell College of Veterinary Medicine collaborated with an established vaccine manufacturer to seek United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) approval to extend the label of their currently licensed livestock rabies vaccine to include goats. This effort was generously supported by the goat industry, goat owners and goat lovers and the Department of Agriculture and Markets of the State of New York. The aim of all involved was to protect goats and the public against rabies. The vaccine trial was conducted in 1999 and 2000. If it had been successful, the next step would have been to apply for official licensure and approval for use of this vaccine in goats.

Louis Pasteur | Chemist
Summarizes Pasteur's efforts to stop the spread of diseases and find a treatment for rabies.
http://www2.lucidcafe.com/lucidcafe/library/95dec/pasteur.html

Extractions: Louis Pasteur was born on December 27, 1822 in Dole, in the region of Jura, France. His discovery that most infectious diseases are caused by germs, known as the "germ theory of disease," is one of the most important in medical history. His work became the foundation for the science of microbiology, and a cornerstone of modern medicine. Pasteur's phenomenal contributions to microbiology and medicine can be summarized as follows: First, he championed changes in hospital practices to minimize the spread of disease by microbes. Second, he discovered that weakened forms of a microbe could be used as an immunization against more virulent forms of the microbe. Third, Pasteur found that rabies was transmitted by agents so small they could not be seen under a microscope, thus revealing the world of viruses. As a result he developed techniques to vaccinate dogs against rabies, and to treat humans bitten by rabid dogs. And fourth, Pasteur developed "pasteurization," a process by which harmful microbes in perishable food products are destroyed using heat, without destroying the food. Pasteur was a thorough, highly intuitive researcher who always considered the wider ramifications to his work. While he revered science, Pasteur always believed that there were spiritual values that transcend it. Pasteur was also a capable public speaker, often defending his positions on various controversies with eloquence.

The agency provided 60 percent of the personnel involved in this vital cooperative project focused on protecting Texans health and safety. The agency serves rural and urban areas with technical assistance, education and direct control in wildlife damage management. With $75 million in annual resource losses to Texas wildlife, the agency's importance continues to grow.

The risk is yours Your risk of acquiring a disease depends on several factors. They include: your age, gender, immunization status and current state of health; your itinerary, duration and style of travel (e.g., first class, adventure) and anticipated travel activities (e.g., animal contact, exposure to fresh water, sexual contact); as well as the local disease situation. Risk assessment consultation Health Canada strongly recommends that your travel plans include contacting a travel medicine clinic or physician 6 to 8 weeks before departure. Based on your individual risk assessment, a health care professional can determine your need for immunizations and/or preventive medication (prophylaxis) and advise you on precautions to avoid disease.
