BookletTechnical reportUnited Against Rabies Collaboration First Annual Progress Report
Zero by 2030 The Global Strategic Plan to End Human Deaths from Dog-mediated Rabies by 2030
2019Also available in:
No results found.This first annual report describes the progress made since 2018 when the “Zero by 30” Global Strategic Plan was launched. The country-centric plan is built on the premise that societal and political support are fundamental to the success of any disease elimination campaign. Until recently, the global response to rabies was fragmented and uncoordinated. This first annual progress report demonstrates the collaborative impact of the four organizations of the UAR on national, regional and global rabies elimination programmes. Significant progress has been made towards achieving the three objectives of the Global Strategic Plan. In addressing the first objective, the UAR demonstrated (i) increased access to dog rabies vaccines, (ii) improved medical care for cases of human rabies exposure and (iii) enhanced rabies awareness in several countries and regions worldwide. -

FAO's support to member countries on rabies control
2024Also available in:
No results found.This report showcases some examples of FAO’s endeavours in assisting countries across Africa, Asia and the Middle East in combating rabies through the holistic One Health approach. It is our aspiration that this report serve as a source of inspiration and as a catalyst for sustained action, motivating FAO, its Members and collaborative partners to continue their dedicated efforts to combat rabies. Let us stand united, committed to achieve the common vision of “zero by 30”. -
ArticleJournal articleAssessing bait acceptance of local dogs, oral rabies vaccination success and human contact risk in Bali, Indonesia 2023
Also available in:
No results found.The objective of this study was to identify the preferred bait of local dogs in Bali and estimate oral rabies vaccination (ORV) success in locations with varying geographic and demographic conditions. In addition, an evaluation of potential direct and indirect contact with the placebo sachet contents was conducted. The study was a randomized controlled trial conducted in two pilot areas of Bali using imported and hand-made baits. All dogs were offered a single bait containing a sachet of blue-dyed water using the “hand-out and retrieve” technique. Several methods were used to determine the likelihood of contact with the placebo vaccine. Comparing ORV with capture-vaccinate-release (CVR) methods, field officers were given Google Forms questions to answer. Statistical analysis was performed using univariate contingency table testing, followed by the development of a multiple logistic regression (MLR) model. With 96.9% acceptance, intestine was the most popular bait for local dogs in Bali, and egg bait came in second (81.1%). However, the egg bait was 95.2% effective in releasing the vaccine in the oral cavity, followed by the intestine at 82.6%. 6.1% of surveyed households had direct contact with a dog that had recently consumed a vaccine bait. A survey among field officers also indicated that they preferred ORV over CVR, as the former is more suitable for vaccinating inaccessible dogs and less stressful for the teams and the animals. In Bali, both a locally-made intestine bait and an industrially-produced egg-flavored bait were readily taken up by local dogs. There is a small risk that people can come into contact with dogs previously offered a bait; hence, only vaccines with a high safety profile should be used. ORV can replace the currently used CVR method for vaccinating free-roaming dogs as a complementary tool to increase vaccination coverage.
