Talk:Prevalence of rabies

Much of the information on prevalence is out of date as rabies has re-emerged in a number of places. Government health websites such as (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/rabies-risks-by-country/rabies-risks-in-terrestrial-animals-by-country) could be useful in updating the information. Tables could be useful. Much of the country/region sections could also be streamlined. Bobpenguin (talk) 23:29, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Portugal and Spain are also countries with a rabies-free status, and so the references in this article shows, however, the colored map shows that both countries have rabies, what is clearly a mistake.

Ref. 33 (Lumrix.net)
Following the link to this reference (http://www.lumrix.net/health/Rabies.html) reveals a webpage that says it is based on the Wikipedia article. Can Wikipedia use this link as a valid reference, as it sounds a little circular to me? Bonza9683 20:15, 21 September 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bonza9683 (talk • contribs)

Added section on mainland China
Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I realized that there wasn't any information on rabies transmission and prevalence in China, so I did a bit of research on my own and added a section about that. It's surprising that nobody mentioned it, especially since China has one of the highest (total) rabies cases per year. The sources I cited contain additional information, if anyone wishes to expand upon it. Please let me know if this is adequate.

Oh, by the way - this is my school's institutional IP address. If you see vandalism coming from this IP, it's probably not me, but some of those knuckleheads. Please don't mind them.

Isreal is listed under the Asia section
Just thought i'd point it out for someone to fix. I'm not good at editing. 163.47.239.17 (talk) 14:00, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

rabies free+?
http://apps.who.int/neglected_diseases/ntddata/rabies/rabies.html SHOWS IT is Dog Free Rabies - this should be updated in the maps and article as wild rabies still exists in bats, foxes et cetera cf. polio. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.115.204.102 (talk) 03:13, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Pet Boom in Asia?
I tried finding a citation for this statement - "Another source of rabies in Asia is the pet boom" but was unable to find a reliable source. Please add citation. Blossiraptor (talk) 20:42, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
