Domestic dog demographic structure and dynamics relevant to rabies control planning in urban areas in Africa: the case of Iringa, Tanzania [PDF]
, 2012 <p>Background Mass vaccinations of domestic dogs have been shown to effectively control canine rabies and hence human exposure to rabies. Knowledge of dog population demography is essential for planning effective rabies vaccination programmes ...

Mass Dog Vaccination and Animal Birth Control: A One Health Pilot Project in Karachi, Pakistan
, 2023 The Sindh province in Southern Pakistan reports staggering numbers of dog bites. Not only to treat but to prevent, dog-bite casualties, in January 2018, the Indus Hospital launched a proof of concept of One Health. The pilot project ‘Rabies Free Pakistan’ (RFP) consisted of the performance of mass dog vaccination (MDV) and animal birth control (ABC) in

Response to a rabies epidemic in Bali, Indonesia [PDF]
, 2013 Emergency vaccinations and culling failed to contain an outbreak of rabies in Bali, Indonesia, during 2008–2009. Subsequent island-wide mass vaccination (reaching 70% coverage, >200,000 dogs) led to substantial declines in rabies incidence and spread.

Modelling canine rabies elimination in India through mass dog vaccination
, 2022 The ‘Zero by 30’ campaign aims to globally eliminate dog-mediated human rabies deaths by 2030. Theoretical and empirical studies have shown that annual mass rabies vaccination (MRV) campaigns that vaccinate at least 70% of the dog population in an area can effectively control canine rabies outbreaks and eventually eliminate it. Achieving such coverages
