Surveillance to Establish Elimination of Transmission and Freedom from Dog-mediated Rabies

2016-12-31

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> 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 for enhanced surveillance strategies suitable for declaring freedom from disease and elimination of transmission with known confidence. <h4>Methods</h4> Using exhaustive contact tracing across settings in Tanzania we generated...
