Rabies on the Rise in Iowa Urges Immediate Action
County health officials reference a state board release urging all Iowans to act now to curb rabies spread. The first half of this year saw 192 reported cases compared with 252 in all of 1949, with year round occurrence and blame placed on lax dog licensing enforcement. Vaccination of all dogs is urged as the key control method due to spread by bites from infected animals, and rising cases among wild animals like skunks and foxes.
