"Headlines to the contrary, that didn't mean that rabies - an essentially untreatable disease, with only one documented human survivor in this country - has disappeared for good."
Quote above is from a Newsday article entitled Giving Rabies Vaccine is Sure Way to Protect Pets by Denise Flaim (10/29/07). This article, with comments from Dr. W. Jean Dodds of The Rabies Challenge Fund and Hemopet, clarifies some of the confusion which arose in response to the Center For Disease Control's press release, US Declared Canine-Rabies Free -- CDC Announces at Inaugural World Rabies Day Symposium.
