ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the situation of dog rabies and analyze it's relationship with human rabies.METHODS:
In Guizhou, Guangxi and Hunan provinces which suffered from rabies most heavily, one or two cities were selected respectively from regions with high-, middle-, low-incidence rate of human rabies as investigation spots where Dogs' brain specimens were collected and detected with both direct immunofluorescence assay (IFA) and RT-PCR.RESULTS:
A total of 2887 specimens were collected and 66 of these were positive for IFA and RT-PCR. Therefore, the rate of positive specimens was 2.3%. However, there was not a close relationship in the incidence rate of dog rabies and human rabies.CONCLUSION:
Dog's infection situation of rabies contributed to the severe epidemic of human rabies.
