Human Infection Due to
Recombinant Vaccinia–Rabies Glycoprotein Virus Charles E. Rupprecht, V.M.D., Ph.D., Leonard Blass, M.D., Kathy Smith, D.V.M., Lillian A. Orciari, M.S., Michael Niezgoda, M.S., Sylvia G. Whitfield, M.S., Robert V. Gibbons, M.D., Marta Guerra, D.V.M., Ph.D., and Cathleen A. Hanlon, V.M.D., Ph.D.
Rabies is a fatal viral disease transmitted from animals to
humans. It causes more than 35,000 human deaths per year.1 Successful
application of veterinary vaccines can eliminate canine rabies
in an area, but control of rabies in free-ranging carnivores requires
other strategies, such as oral vaccination.2 Live viral
vaccines containing modified live rabies or recombinant vaccinia–rabies
glycoprotein virus, placed in a bait, are used for disease control
in Europe and North America.2,3,4,5 In the United States, more
than 22 million doses of vaccinia–rabies glycoprotein vaccine
were distributed from 1990 to 2000, Case Report Methods Results Discussion References

 "A foolish faith in authority is the worst enemy of truth." -- Albert Einstein, letter to a friend, 1901 "I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves, and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education." -- Thomas Jefferson, letter to William C. Jarvis, September 28, 1820 "What's the point of vaccination if it doesn't protect you from the unvaccinated?" -- Sandy Gottstein "Who gets to decide what the greater good is and how many will be sacrificed to it?" -- Sandy Gottstein |
