Free anti -rabies vaccination clinics now being set up Rabies in animals "hi Huron County continues to be a prob- . lem. The number of confirmed cases during 1974 was 39 for the period. This figure was 71 con- firmed cases for the same period m 1973. The 39 animals were comprised of the following: bovines, 18; dogs, 4; foxes, 9; skunks, 5; rses, 3. Duringthe past eight years, ex- cept 1974, Agriculture Canada, Health of Animals Branch, in co- operation with the Huron County Health Unit, has sponsored free pnti-rabieS vaccination clinics for • dogs and cats in the county. The sponsoring groups have therefore decided to again hold anti -rabies • vaccination clinics in 1975, in an attempt to limit the spread of rabies to dogs and cats from wild animals,.particularly skunks and foxes. • All owners of:dogs and cats are . strongly urged, to take advantage of the FREE anti -rabies vaccina- tion clinics which will take place tit ' from June 16, (in northern areas of the county) to July 4, (in south- ern areas). Please consult local newspapers and radio stations for locations, dates and times. Rabies is a virus disease of ani- mals which can be spread to man and is usually fatal in all warm- blooded species. The fatality of the disease is an aspect which makes the disease so important in public health. To date no confirmed cases of rabies have occurred in humans in Huron County. This t out- standing record is mainly due to the conscientious efforts of medi- cal authorities and practitioners in the county, combined with con- trol measures in animals.
