[Epidemiology and epizootiology of rabies in Krasnodar region].
In 1995-1999 the aggravation of the epidemiological situation in rabies took place in the Krasnodar Territory. In the region of Great Sochi this was due to the emergency situation (armed conflict) on the adjoining territory (in Abkhazia), which led to the migration of domestic animals, turning wild, to the Black Sea coast where the situation with this infection had earlier been favorable. In 1995-1997 on the territory of Great Sochi 4 persons died of rabies as a consequence of getting dog bites and then failing to apply for medical assistance. A threat for human health is also created by cutting down work on the extermination of stray dogs and cats, the insufficient provision of medical institutions with antirabic preparations. The efforts of the medical service of the Territory should be concentrated on the prophylactic measures for controlling rabies.
