    Rabies Vaccination in Walsall

    We’ve all heard horror stories about people who have returned from an exotic trip with an unexpected tropical illness. From hepatitis to typhoid, you can protect yourself against illness whilst abroad by attending our local travel health clinic in Walsall. In addition to the rabies vaccine, we offer a range of other travel vaccines and travel advice that is second to none.

    The Rabies Virus

    Rabies is not a virus that is present in the UK, but it exists across continents including Africa, Asia, The Americas and Australia. Rabies is still carried by dogs and other mammals including bats. The rabies virus is transmitted to humans when an infected animal bites or scratches, allowing the virus to enter the body. Once within the muscle, the virus travels along the peripheral nerves until it reaches the central nervous system, causing inflammation of the brain. Symptoms take around one to three months to appear, depending on how long it takes for the virus to travel to the brain. Symptoms include violent movements, extreme fear of water, confusion and loss of consciousness. Once the symptoms have started, rabies is fatal in most cases. Having the rabies vaccine prior to leaving the UK is therefore of great importance for anyone who may be at risk of rabies when travelling abroad.

    Rabies Across The Globe

    Rabies is considered to be a neglected tropical disease, and in September, World Rabies Day promotes prevention and eradication of the virus. More than three billion people live in regions of the world where rabies occurs and in 2015, over 17,000 people died as a result of rabies, with most of these deaths occurring in Africa. We are lucky to be able to access the rabies vaccine easily within the UK, and booking your vaccination may be the best decision you ever make.
