Rabies is one of the most important zoonosis in world with high impact on public health. Studies report presence Lyssavirus reservoirs wild cycle, highlighting role canines, marmosets, and vampire non-vampire bats as potential vectors disease to domestic animals human beings. Therefore, reintroduction rabies urban environments from cycle a matter concern. This study describes profile cases documented Brazil 2002 2012, emphasis transmission disease. We carried out descriptive using records...
Human rabies outbreak transmitted by bats continues to be a relevant public health problem not only in the Amazon region. The disease has affected one of areas with greatest poverty southeastern Brazil, region inhabited Maxakali indigenous people.We describe four cases among children that occurred village Pradinho, municipality Bertópolis, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Cases were notified between April and May 2022, all whom died on average eight days after first symptoms. All observed rural...
Abstract Background With a global target set for zero human deaths from dog-mediated rabies by 2030 and some regional programmes close to eliminating canine rabies, there is an urgent need enhanced surveillance strategies suitable declaring freedom disease elimination of transmission with known confidence. Methods Using exhaustive contact tracing across settings in Tanzania we generated detailed data on incidence, rabid dog biting behaviour health-seeking bite victims. these compared case...
An effective surveillance system is critical for the elimination of canine rabies in Latin America. Brazil has made substantial progress towards elimination, but outbreaks still occurred last decade two states. uses a health information (SINAN) to record patients seeking post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) following contact with an animal suspected having rabies. This study evaluated: (i) whether SINAN can be reliably used surveillance; (ii) if are receiving appropriate PEP and (iii) benefits...
In 1973, the National Rabies Program was created in Brazil through an agreement between Ministry of Health and Agriculture. Since its beginning, it developed integrated action access to free post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for people at risk, dog vaccination campaigns, a joint surveillance system, awareness. This study aims describe human rabies under One perspective recent decades, including achievements control dog-mediated cases challenges transmitted by wild animals. paper also explores...
Rabies transmitted by wildlife is now the main source of human rabies in Americas. The common marmoset, Callithrix jacchus , considered a reservoir causing sporadic and unpredictable deaths Brazil, but extent spillover risk to humans remains unknown. In this study, we described spatiotemporal dynamics affecting C . reported Brazil’s Ministry Health passive surveillance system between 2008 2020, combined ecological niche modelling with occurrence data predict its suitable habitat. Our results...
Abstract Background International organizations advocate for the elimination of dog-mediated rabies, but there is only limited guidance on interpreting surveillance data managing programmes. With regional programme in Latin America approaching we aimed to develop a tool evaluate programme’s performance and generate locally-tailored rabies control management overcome remaining obstacles. Methods We developed validated robust algorithm classify progress towards within sub-national...

Introduction: In Brazil, the wild boar is an exotic invasive species that has been reported as a disease reservoir in several parts of world. The result crossing with domestic pig called, ´´javaporco´´. Brazilian territory, boars and javaporco have recorded serving food sources for blood-feeding bats (Desmodus rotundus), impacts such interactions on human health are still unknown. Objetive: Characterize attacks by human, anti-rabies treatment follows accidents. Methods: Reports...
In 2018, an outbreak of human rabies caused by the hematophagous bat Desmodus rotundus hit Brazilian Amazon Basin community Melgaço, Brazil, resulting in death 10 people, 9 them children. The incidence has been on rise among populations conditions vulnerability this ecosystem due to expansion into sylvatic environments and limited access public health services. To address issue, September 2019, a collaborative effort from national, local, international institutions promoted executed pilot...

Introdução: A raiva é uma doença infecciosa, que acomete todos os mamíferos, causada por um vírus atua no sistema nervoso e quase sempre fatal. Os cães são animais importantes na epidemiologia da sua vacinação das estratégias de prevenção utilizadas pelos serviços saúde. Objetivo:Este artigo tem como objetivo revisar a importância estimativas populacionais caninas envolvidas nas ações controle transmissão ciclo urbano. Metodologia: Foi feita busca em bibliotecas virtuais, livros informes...
A raiva e uma zoonose viral, que acomete o Sistema Nervoso Central, de evolucao aguda quase sempre fatal. Atraves das notificacoes enviadas a SES-MT (Secretaria Estado Saude Mato Grosso), foi realizado um mapeamento dos casos positivos nas diferentes especies, ocorreram no periodo 2002 2011 Grosso. Foram diagnosticados 915 estado durante esse periodo. Animais especies foram acometidos pela enfermidade. especie bovina notadamente mais notificada com 80,00% (736) casos, seguida canina 12,56%...
