Chile Achieves South American Rabies Milestone
The World Health Organization announced that Chile has become the first country in South America to eliminate dog-to-human transmission of rabies, after more than five decades of prevention and surveillance efforts that included animal vaccination, public awareness campaigns, and measures to control the dog population. The last recorded case in Chile dates back to 1972. This achievement is attributed to a long-term strategy that involved widespread vaccination campaigns and awareness programs, reflecting success in protecting against a preventable disease that poses a significant threat to public health.
