This is one of the few vaccines that can be given post-infection, but ONLY if they have the vaccine ready at the ER.

Cutting vaccine funding will inevitably cut rabbies readiness. Furthermore, dogs and cats can get fewer strains of rabies each. It is vitally important that all cats and dogs that go outdoors get their rabbies shots because the post-infection regiment for dogs and cats is less effective.

The particular strains that affect cats and dogs are some of the most problematic. They are a nasty set that we have been unable to get rid of due to the frequent jumping between the stray population and various carriers.

Notably, many strains can infect certain rodents without causing rapid mental decline the way they would in pets, other larger mammals, and of course, humans.
