For anyone who likes to travel anywhere that isn’t rabies free, especially if it’s remote and developing, get the rabies vaccine. It won’t make you totally immune, but it buys you more time and dramatically simplifies any treatment you need if bitten. Due to a global shortage of the medicine needed to treat an unvaccinated person, it’s much more likely a local hospital can successfully treat a vaccinated person than an unvaccinated one. A vaccinated person basically just needs more of the same, comparatively common, vaccine.
It’s a horrible disease, and essentially 100% fatal if not treated. It is absolutely worth protecting yourself.
Remember, rabies free means land mammal rabies free. If a bat bites you, seek help immediately.
long live the Great Antarctic State 🇦🇶🇦🇶🇦🇶🐧
Wdym Jersey and Guernsey aren’t ?
I wonder how long until the raccoons introduced in Europe spread the disease
Whats keeping the continental nations rabies free? Like the UK makes sense, but whats say stopping a rabid dog in Poland from strolling across the open border into Germany here?
So is Greenland not green because it has rabies? Or is this No Data Available again? Also what’s up with the Channel Islands?
Slow clap for Antarctica.
Nuh uh. The Rabies copypasta says it’s everywhere on Earth except Antarctica
When rabies was still present in Slovenia, bait containing vaccine was dropped from helicopters at the Austrian border to vaccinate foxes. This prevented rabies from returning to Austria. That was about 20 years ago. It’s great to see that not only Slovenia is now rabies-free, but Croatia too.
Isle of Man and Guernsey aren’t rabies free, while the UK is. Interesting!
Makes sense
As strict as we Nordics are about this, I would have been rather ridiculously surprised if it existed at all in any of the Nordic countries.
I remember reading a story a couple months ago about a Ukrainian soldier that got bite by cat while on patrol and got rabies. By the time they figure out he had rabies, it was too late to reverse it.
Romania not being rabies free whilst Bulgaria beng rabies free is annoying as hell.
Come on Bulgaria, wait for us…
I got rabies shot in Greece
How is this possible in Australia? Practically everything in nature there is trying to kill you.
After what Michael Scott did in the USA, it is not rabies free yet?
For now…
I‘m so glad that Australia has 1 less deadly thing than the rest of the grey areas.
Just watched the George Romero film ‚The Crazies‘ from 1973, where the government accidentally released weaponized rabies into the town water supply. I’m starting to think that was a documentary because everyone IS crazy!
Can probably skip the quotation marks for antarctica.
Is the isle of Mann not ? Why’s it coloured in grey ?
Yup, that’s how I got laughed at by medical personnel (all in good fun)
I got a monkey bite on one of my last vacation days in Thailand and started the vaccine cycle there. It’s a shot every week for 5 weeks, so I needed 4 of them once I got back home in Italy.
Doctors here had never done one, sometimes they called other doctors and nurses in the room to show me off “look how cool, we’re doing a rabies shot today!”
It makes sense for all the island nations, but how do European countries with a land border ensure a rabid squirrel or something doesn’t sneak across the border?
UK had a rabies case for a naturalist who was bitten by a bat he was studying, and died.
Antarctica’s got no rabies? Penguins are living the dream!
What’s the country located in Antarctica???
AUSTRALIA???
