According to data of the National Veterinary Diagnostics Center, rabies has been diagnosed in 34 administrative units in 88 animals, the biggest number over the 6 months of monitoring, Info-Prim Neo reports. Rabies has been found in 69 domestic animals (cows, dogs, sheep, cats, goats and pigs) and in 19 wild animals (foxes, martens and ferrets). The most cases have been recorded the districts Ungheni, Slobozia, Edinet and Orhei. According to a press release published on the webpage of the National Public Health Center, the situation is even more worrying because of the risk of human rabies, which would aggravate the epidemiological situation. The doctors recommend to avoid contact with animals whose behavior may seem unusual, to vaccinate the animals and to warn the children that love to play with them. If bitten by an infected animal, the wound should be washed with soap, disinfected with iodine and the bitten person should see the doctor. The World Health Organization recommends the pre-exposure vaccination of people in high-risk groups, such as veterinary doctors, laboratory specialists that work with the rabies virus, people who travel to risk zones and countries with high incidence of rabies (Africa, Asia and Latin America).
