Oral Rabies Vaccination Program in the Eastern United States

Image
Rabies is a deadly virus that affects the central nervous system in mammals.  It is almost always transmitted through the bite of an infected animal. Wildlife  account for more than 90 percent of all reported rabies cases each year in the  United States. Raccoons, bats, and skunks are responsible for most of those  cases, but foxes and coyotes can also spread the disease.   Vaccinating Wildlife for Rabies  Effective vaccines are available to prevent rabies in wildlife.

Abrego Garcia has consistently denied any involvement with MS-13, and his attorneys argue that the accusations are based on unreliable information.
