The majority of cases occur in Africa and Asia, and more than 40% of cases occur in children less than 15 years of age. Dogs are responsible for over 95% of all rabies transmissions to humans. rabies prevention involves two main, non-exclusive strategies: (i) dog vaccination to interrupt virus transmission to humans; and (ii) human vaccination post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) using purified cell-culture and embryonated egg-based vaccines (CCEEVs).
