Dog rabies vaccination programs have halted the natural spread of rabies among domestic dogs, which are no longer considered a rabies reservoir in the United States. Nonetheless, each year around 60 to 70 dogs and more than 250 cats are reported rabid.

Does rabies have an almost 100% mortality rate with around 160 deaths per day? Ask Question Asked 4 years, 10 months ago. Active 4 years, 10 months ago. On a list of disease fatality rates wiki says that Rabies has a untreated rate of "~100%" – Edward G-Jones May 15 '15 at 12:33 Rabies is caused by a neurotropic virus of the family Rhabdoviridae, genus Lyssavirus, subgroup rabies virus. The virus is commonly transmitted via saliva that contaminates bites, scratches, and wounds, and, recently, via mucosal exposure. [] Rabies transmission via transplanted neurologic tissues (corneas) and solid organs has also been documented. There is lack of accurate quantitative information on rabies both in humans and animals in Ethiopia and little is known about the awareness of the people about the disease. In this study, we estimated the incidence of rabies in humans and domestic animals, and assessed the people's awareness about the disease in North Gondar zone, Ethiopia. morbidity statistics Morbidity (illness) statistics are widely used by epidemiologists in the analysis of ill-health within human populations. There are two major types of morbidity rate: the prevalence rate and the incidence rate. The prevalence rate gives an indication of the number of individuals in a population suffering from a particular condition at any time, while the incidence rate A South Carolina woman who died from rabies she contracted from bats in her home might have been saved if she had been told of rabies risks associated with bats, according to a new report of her case. The Florida Morbidity Statistics Report is compiled in a single reference document to: • Summarize annual morbidity from reportable communicable diseases and diseases of environmental origin in Florida. • Describe patterns of disease that can be assessed over time, compared with trends from other states, and act as an

3 Mar 2016 The incidence rate of rabid dogs varied from 2.4 to 17.5 per 10,000 dog population. Over the years, the risk of dog bites varied. The highest risks

This does not include, however, the greatly increasing rate of prophylactic rabies treatments in cases of possible exposure, which numbered fewer than one hundred humans annually in the state of New York before 1990, for instance, but rose to approximately ten thousand annually between 1990 and 1995.

This is a list of human disease case fatality rates (CFRs). A CFR is the proportion of people diagnosed with a disease who die during the course of the disease (cf. mortality rate).Data are based on optimally treated patients and exclude isolated cases or minor outbreaks, unless otherwise indicated.

The Florida Morbidity Statistics Report is compiled in a single reference document to: • Summarize annual morbidity from reportable communicable diseases and diseases of environmental origin in Florida. • Describe patterns of disease that can be assessed over time, compared with trends from other states, and act as an Rabies symptoms can appear as early as ten days after the feline was bitten and as late as a year. The virus affects the brain and nervous system, with initial signs of change in behavior. Rabies is a fatal, incurable disease that can easily infect humans if the proper precautions are not taken. In recent years, mortality rates for diseases of the nervous system have been both increasing and consistently higher in the U.S. than in comparable countries. In the U.S., the age-adjusted mortality rate for Alzheimer’s disease has increased from just under 12 deaths per 100,000 population in 1980 to over 33 in 2015.

The annual death toll is around 50 000–60 000, with 99% occurring in tropical developing countries [ 1 ]. Around 36% of these rabies related deaths occur in India every year with dog bites being responsible for 95-97% of these cases [ 2, 3 ]. Incidence (annual) of Rabies: 18,000 cases (of rabies shots rather than actual rabies) Incidence Rate: approx 1 in 15,111 or 0.01% or 18,000 people in USA Incidence extrapolations for USA for Rabies: 18,000 per year, 1,500 per month, 346 per week, 49 per day, 2 per hour, 0 per minute, 0 per second. Leptospirosis is estimated to cause 1.03 million cases and 58,900 deaths each year worldwide (). In the Americas, annual morbidity rates range from a low of 3.9 per 100,000 population in southern Latin America to a high of 50.7 in the Caribbean (). This does not include, however, the greatly increasing rate of prophylactic rabies treatments in cases of possible exposure, which numbered fewer than one hundred humans annually in the state of New York before 1990, for instance, but rose to approximately ten thousand annually between 1990 and 1995.
