dc.description.abstract | Rabies is a latin word that means ‘madness’. Rabies is one of the most important viral zoonotic diseases affecting man and warm blooded animal. The disease has been observed in free and captive carnivores more than any other mammalian species. Urban and sylvatic are two epidemiological cycles maintained independently with occasional spill over from sylvatic to urban foci. Human is an accidental and usually blind host. Rabies has been recognized in India since the Vedic period (1500–500 BC) and is described in the ancient Indian scripture Atharvaveda, wherein Yama, the mythical God of Death, has been depicted as attended by 2 dogs as his constant companions, the emissaries of death (Deshmukh, 2004). Most animal bites in India (91.5%) are by dogs, of which about 60% are strays and 40% pets. The incidence of animal bites is 17.4 per 1000 population. A person is bitten every 2 seconds, and someone dies from rabies every 30 minutes. The annual number of person-days lost because of animal bites is 38 million, and the cost of post-bite treatment is about $25 million (Sudarshan, 2004). The National Multicentric Rabies Survey 2003, carried out by the Association for Prevention and Control of Rabies in India(APCRI), reported about 133 wild animal rabies death in various Species viz. mongoose- 98, jackal- 13, deer- 11, bear- 1, wolf-1, lion- 3, fox-1, rhinoceros1, panther-1 during the period of 1992-2001. Through this literature an attempt is being made to ascertain the incidence of sylvatic rabies in India. | en_US |
