Rabies Outbreak
Is Reported
In Bethel Area
An outbreak of rabies in dogs
and wild animals at Scammon
Hay has been reported and Sani
tation Aide Supervisor Jack Dav
is of the Bethel area has gone to
the coastal village with 270 units
of dog vaccine, Amos J. Alter,
chief of the Health and Welfare
department’s e n v i r o n mental
health branch has announced. He
said one man bitten by an animal
involved in the outbreak is hospi
talized at Bethel.
Two dog heads submitted for
examination at the Anchorage
public health, laboratory were
proved positive by the new fluor
escent antibody technique which
is about two weeks sooner than
Jesuits could be obtained by older
methods of identification, Alter
said.
For many years rabies has been
known to exist in foxes, wolves
and other Alaska wildlife, Alter
stated, and a campaign for vac
cination of all dogs is carried on
cooperatively by the Division of
Public Health, U. S. Fish and
Wildlife, Air Force veterinarians,
and the State Department of Ag
riculture which provides the vac
cine at cost.
Severe outbreaks of rabies oc
curred in the winter of 1962 in
several Yukon villages.
