Editor’s summary
There is a lack of awareness in the general population about rabies and how to handle exposure to rabies suspected dog bites. Albeit some progress, there is still a lack of standardization of post exposure treatment in China, making it the world largest market for human rabies vaccination with no effect on interrupting transmission. Image: World map of rabies death shows the proportion of human deaths from rabies worldwide that occurred there between 1995 and 2004.
