From Page 1 13 Rabies Infections Confirmed in This Area by Stephanie Chapman At least thirteen cases of rabies involving involving wild animals have been confirmed confirmed this year in the Newcastle area. The startling increase in the disease disease that can affect any animal, domestic or wild, is approximately "twice as high as last year's statistics for the Town of Newcastle," said Doctor Doctor Sandra Shearer, an Agriculture Canada veterinarian. The infection may be contracted by any warm blooded animal, and it is usually transmitted through the bite or saliva of those species affected. Once the virus has entered the body, it travels through the nervous system until it reaches the brain. "We have the highest rate of rabies in Ontario, and Southern Ontario has the highest rate in all of Canada," said Alex Connor, the senior public health inspector for Durham Region. There are several symptoms to watch fqr in an animal when there is a possibility that it has contracted rabies. "If you have a particularly fierce dog who suddenly turns very affectionate, affectionate, or visa versa, that's a pretty good sign," said Mr. Connor. Several other symptoms involve a loss of co-ordination, and drooling at the mouth which is caused by a difficulty difficulty in swallowing. The most common carriers of the virus are skunks, bats, and foxes. "The disease is pretty well steady," ANNOUNCEMENT Il V said Mr. Connor, "It is particularly heavy or more active in the Spring and Fall because the animals are mating and staking out their territories." territories." Mr. Connor said that keeping pets vaccinated is the best deterrent against the disease. "If the vaccinations are kept up, then a dog that is suspected of having rabies would only have to be quarantined quarantined three months. "If not, then it could be six." Due to this increase in rabies, pet owners are urged to have their animals animals vaccinated, and keep them from roaming freely. If a human being is bitten by an infected infected animal, they should contact health authorities as soon as possible because if the disease is not treated, it is fatal. Once a human has contracted the disease, the treatment for the infection infection is a five-shot series in the arm or hip over a five week period. Controlling the virus is not an easy task. The only known control for erasing erasing the infection from the wildlife is to vaccinate or eliminate the species, and as Doctor Sandra Shearer said, "Neither of these ideas is very popular!" popular!" "One way of controlling the problem problem is to see that people are responsible responsible enough to vaccinate and confine their pets, This will cut down on the human risk." said Dr. Shearer.

But Councillor Marie Hubbard replied replied that the controversial meeting was, in actual fact, called by the mayor after discussions with council members. She added that the meetings meetings of the council session were in order. Councillor Ann Cowman, who was unable to attend Monday's council meeting due to illness, said in a telephone telephone interview that she understood that Mayor Winters had agreed to call a meeting and therefore it was "redundant" "redundant" for members of council to require a petition. "I concur with the appointment of Mr. Oakes, whose credibility credibility in the interpretation of the town's by-laws is impeccable," she said. When Mayor Winters ruled that he could not accept a resolution to approve approve of the .June 12 meeting, Councillor Councillor Hubbard moved a motion to adjourn. adjourn. That resolution was defeated. "Is this because the vote didn't go the way we wanted that we're going to declare the meeting illegal?" asked Councillor Diane Hamre. "Is that how we're going to operate from now on?" The mayor replied that he called the earlier special council meeting after being advised by council and the town clerk that it was in accordance accordance with rules of procedure. He stated in the course of this week's discussion discussion that he is not attacking the decision of council but is objecting to the calling of the previous meeting on short notice and with the public absent from the meeting. In fact, the special council session lasted approximately 10 minutes and followed a committee meeting in which items had been discussed in camera. "I don't think it's appropriate to hold a meeting after you have sent everyone home," said Mayor Winters. After the mayor refused to accept the minutes of the previous meeting and after a motion to adjourn was defeated, defeated, council proceeded to other business.
