Rabies is a virus present in the saliva of rabid animals such as raccoons, foxes, dogs, cats, and bats.1 In developing countries, dogs are a major source of rabies. Two categories of exposure should be considered: bite and nonbite. A bite or any skin penetration by teeth is considered a direct exposure and a potential risk.

History of Rabies and Rabies Vaccines
2020Lyssaviruses continue to evolve and pose threats to humans, domestic animals, and wildlife. As a fatal disease of zoonotic importance, rabies is fortunately preventable, thanks to the advent of potent biologics. Pioneering works done during the last two centuries act as cornerstone of research making rabies diagnosis, prevention, control, and selective

Preexposure Rabies Vaccination
Journal of Travel Medicine, 1994Preexposure rabies vaccination consists of the provision of protective antibodies to individuals who are potentially at risk of being infected with rabies.' This is done by giving three primary injections of a tissue culture rabies vaccine one each on day 0,7, and 28 (a few days variation in timing is acceptable).

Post-exposure rabies vaccination [PDF]
Nursing Standard, 2003 Bites from dogs, cats, bats and monkeys are the most common source of rabies infection in humans. Fatal cases of rabies are relatively rare in the UK, because of ready access to post-exposure immunisation and wound treatment (DoH 2000). However, some people present to general practice seeking advice following exposure to an animal abroad.

Rabies virus and the problems of rabies vaccination in man
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1976The structure of rabies virus and the importance of its glycoprotein in immunization are discussed. The improvement in vaccines for use in man, culminating in the production of the human diploid vaccine is described. Nevertheless problems remain, particularly with regard to post-exposure therapy.

Pediatrics, 1981
Four score and 16 years after Louis Pasteur brought forth the first rabies vaccine in 1884,1 a new vaccine was licensed in the United States. Pasteur's vaccine made protection of man against rabies possible, even after a victim had been bitten. However, there were failures of prevention and the presence of nerve tissue in the vaccine resulted in severe
