Longitudinal analysis of raccoon rabies in West Virginia, 2000-2015

2017-11-11

Abstract excerpt

Animal borne rabies is a source of infection in humans, and raccoons ( Procyon lotor ) are the primary terrestrial reservoir in West Virginia (WV). To assess the behavior and status of raccoon variant rabies virus (RRV) in WV, a longitudinal analysis for the period 2000-2015 was performed, using data provided by the state Bureau of Public Health. Analytic approaches included linear-mixed, Poisson, and zero inflat...
