Veterinarians Say State Pays 1.2B Pounds Annually for Bites
The state allocates approximately 1.2 billion Egyptian pounds annually for the treatment of rabies cases resulting from attacks by stray dogs and cats. This includes the costs of vaccines, immunizations, medical care, and medications, with infection rates increasing, especially in the governorates of Cairo, Giza, and Alexandria. Local authorities are working to establish animal shelters to reduce the number of stray animals and decrease the risk of attacks, aiming to lessen the financial burden on the government.
