| Rabies - Solutions | ||
Emphasis should be placed on:
• · Rabies as a horrifying, incurable, fatal disease, incomparable with other diseases addressed by WHO, and with the disease burden falling most heavily on children.
• · The availability of tools to eliminate the disease. Rabies is an entirely preventable disease.
• · Available surveillance data that underestimates the true number of deaths.
• · A comparison of the estimate of the rabies death toll and disease burden with other diseases should be provided together with an estimation of the global figure for human rabies deaths with a breakdown by region.
• · A study to estimate of the economic burden of rabies, with results of economic analyses, including cost-benefit and cost-effectiveness analysis of control strategies, should be carried out by an economic consultant.
