Integrating contact tracing and whole-genome sequencing to track the elimination of dog-mediated rabies

2022-11-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Dog-mediated rabies is endemic across Africa causing thousands of human deaths annually. A One Health approach to rabies is advocated, comprising emergency post-exposure vaccination of bite victims and mass dog vaccination to break the transmission cycle. However, the impacts and cost-effectiveness of these components are difficult to disentangle. <h4>Methods</h4> We combined contact tracing...
