Abstract:
Rabies is a viral zoonotic disease responsible for an estimated
60, 000 human deaths and over 3.7 million Disability-Adjusted Life
Years (DALYs) lost every year worldwide. It is almost invariably
fatal once clinical signs appear, as a result of acute progressive encephalitis. The disease mainly occurs in poor and vulnerable populations; both rural and urban areas, and has been documented for more
than 4000 years
