title: [Post-vaccination reactions to diploid rabies vaccine].
abstract: The observations are reported of 289 patients receiving rabies diploid vaccine Merieux. The infrequent postvaccination reactions (14%) included mainly local reactions with reddening, oedema and painfulness at the injection site. These changes were short-lasting and regressed spontaneously in most cases. Systemic reactions included mainly fever with malaise (2%), headaches and low mood (1.7%). These reactions were also short-lasting and left no sequelae. Allergic reactions of the type of hyperergic purpura and urticaria were found in isolated cases only (0.3%).
