You see she's scared of catching rabies. My wife and 1 have spoken ta her about t a number of times and she has also had a special presentation at school. Just recently Claire and I were checking out the backyard and we faund a frog. Predictabiy she asked if she could touch hini but first she wanted ta, know if it might have rabies. I explained ta her that frogs dont have rabies and it was quite safe ta handie him. Even though frogs are safe,. same aUner animais are nat, and we must ha very cautiaus when deaiing with them. It's impor- tant Uat we give aur children specific rules ta foilow in this regard, especiaiiy considering that the number of animais found ta have rabies in this ares has increased dramatically over last year. Sa far in 1986 there has been an increase of 100 percent over Une sanie period in 198 5. What Is Rables? Rabies is a viral disease (infective organism) which affects the nervaus systems of any warm blaoded animai including man. Left ta run ts cour- se, it is ALWAYS fatal. It is usualiy spread through the bite of an infected animal. The virus is present in the saliva of the rabid animal, se that any transfer of saliva inta the body, via biting, licking, scruiching or even han- dMing, where saliva may get into a scratch, wound or mucous membranes (mouth, eyes) may cause the disease to ha passed an. Once the virus enters the body, it traveis siowiy. alang the nerves ta the brain, where the reai damnage is done. The incubation period,,or the tume between introduction of the virus ta Une body, and the first appearance of symptanis, varies greatly, from as short as ten days ta a year or more, but usually twa to eight weeks. The virus may ha faund in the saliva ofUne rabid animal for several days hafore symptons begin, so even animais acting normally çould pose a threat. Once symptans hagin, death foliows inevitabiy in a few davs. runners. The runners were carrying the torch ta Peterboroughs ta open the Ontario Summer Games.Free Pres Staff Photo Hlstory Rabies was first diagnosed' in Canada in 1900, in white foies in Une Arctic. Eventually the disease was passed on ta aUner foxes until Unhe red fox population of Ontario became affected. By 1954 Une first case of rabies in red foxes was diagnosed in Fort Albany, Ont. and by 1958 it had spread throughout Ontario's red fox population., OUner animals whlch are likely ta become rabid are skunks, bats, and raccoona, in Unat order. It's quite rare among aquirrels, rats, mice and birds. Amongat damestic animais, dogs and cats head Une list followed by cattle, sheep, horses, etc. Dags and cats, are most likely ta pasa rabieis on tahuinans. The usual situation is that a rabid fox or skunk flghts with an unvaccinated dog or cat which then becames rabid and Unen bites its owner.. How Can Rables Be Controiled Five rules to follow: 1. Avoid wild anrnals. 2. Avoid dead or sick animais. 3. Repart sick animais., 4. Report bites or scratches. 5. Have your animais vaccinated. In addition, contrai your pets, don't let Uneni run at large, especiaily at night when nacturnal animais such as foxes and 'skunks are active. If you see animais such as foxes, skunks and raccoons near schaa.ls or papulated areas during daylight heurs, caîl your local animal control office. Treatment To Prevent Rables If you or your child is bitten by an animal, wash the wound or affected ares tharoughly under run- ning water, being careful flot ta spiash water In eyes or mouth. Make sure the wound is Unoroughly cleaned and flushed using same soap or detergent, foilowed by the application of a disinfectant. Report ta your doctor as soon as passible and he or she c.an advise whether rabies vaccine is required (by the way injections for rabies are now like a regular in- jection and consist usuaiiy of five injections in the arm or hip. About 222 persans were treated iast year in Durham but aiready in 1986 over 200 have had the injections). Where possible the animal involved should ha confined for observation, so it is important that Une Durham Health Services Department is notifîed quickiy. Sa, parents, make sure your chidren are aware of the dangers. They must stay away froni wild or stray animais. For any further Information on rabies cail Durham Heaith Services at 723-8521.
