webfact Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Krabi finds 6 rabies-infected dogs When the virus gets into the body, the symptom can sometimes take a while to develop. By Tim Newton Krabi Provincial Public Health Office have announced a warning to local residents after finding 6 dogs with rabies infection yesterday (March 20). Officials are reminding all people that if they are bitten, scratched or licked by stray dog or cat, to seek medical attention and get a rabies PEP vaccine. The Chief of Krabi Provincial Public Health Office, Dr. Apichai Limanon, said that the rabies situation in Krabi deserves attention because after checking 10 suspected dogs from 2017 – 2018 from Lamtab District, 6 of them are rabies-infected and there are at least 13 people who have had direct contact with these dogs. They people are being monitored and have received the rabies PEP. “Many people have misconception about rabies. Many of them think that rabies is curable so whenever they get a minor bite or are scratched or their open wound is touched by dog / cat saliva, they don’t clean the wound properly and then don’t go to hospital to receive the vaccine.

humbug Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 more than 12 people died in one road accident yesterday in Thailand. 27,000 people die of road accidents in Thailand in one year and 6 people die of rabies in one year. The whole rabies scare is nonsense but feeds into the humans who want to kill everything in life like a few posters on this forum 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are not saying we have to choose between road deaths or getting rabies! It's not one or the other. Are you saying to ignore rabies and allow it to spread until road deaths are stopped?! 'The whole rabies scare is nonsense'... tell that to the families of the rabies victims here. Tell that to the people bitten by dogs and who have to then go and spend money at the hospital for the anti rabies series of injections. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
