title: Imported human rabies--France, 1992.
abstract: Wildlife rabies has been enzootic in France since 1968; however, 13 of the 14 human cases in France were imported, and one was in a person infected through a corneal transplant (1). On May 9, 1992, a 3-year-old boy who resided in Algeria died from rabies encephalitis in Paris. This report summarizes the investigation of this case by the Pasteur Institute.
