🇫🇷 In France, a young man has died from rabies
Just three days before World Rabies Day, a 25-year-old man in Perpignan, France, tragically passed away from rabies caused by a canine lyssavirus of Moroccan origin.
The source of infection remains unknown, but authorities have urged veterinarians to stay vigilant, especially with the rise in international travel and pet movement.
As UEVP President Volker Moser noted:
“Veterinarians are the true guardians of One Health. We are on the front line of zoonotic and emerging diseases. With increasing global travel and pet movements, preparedness and collaboration are key to preventing tragic cases like this.”
Rabies is 100% preventable, yet almost always fatal once symptoms appear.
Continued awareness, vaccination, and cross-border collaboration are vital to prevent future cases.
