Rabies in the Americas and Remarks on Global Aspects
Abstract
The natural history of rabies from the 1930s to the present is described in a setting of its global epidemiology. The people who inaugurated many of the rabies control programs and the animal species that have been known to transmit rabies and cause outbreaks are reviewed. The education of government agencies and public health authorities as well as veterinarians and research scientists about rabies control is considered as a worldwide problem.

Post-exposure treatment of rabies as recommended by the World Health Organization consists of immediate treatment with anti-rabies immunoglobulins in combination with a rabies vaccine.
“post‐exposure treatment of rabies as recommended by the World Health Organization consists of the immediate treatment with anti‐rabies immunoglobulins in combination with a rabies vaccine (Steele, 1988).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
