Fifty Rabies Patients Treated At Austin
Dr J T Wilhite director of the State Pasteur Institute at Austin reports nearly fifty patients under preventive hydrophobia treatment in the state facility with two bitten by mad skunks and the rest by dogs. Last week seventy were under treatment and many dog heads were sent for examination, rabies percent lower in summer about twenty five per cent versus thirty five to forty per cent in winter. He cites prompt killing of suspicious dogs and sending heads as inflating numbers and urges stray dog removal and vaccination for dogs with liberty.
