Evidence of insufficient genetic data and lack of regular genetic research on rabies virus in the Russian Federation: a study of the recent epizootic situation

This paper attempts to point out a disparity between keeping rabies epidemiological statistics and rabies virus sequencing in the Russian Federation. While data on rabies prevention and laboratory detection are duly gathered, virus sequencing efforts remain insufficient. Along with a lack of public...

Summary:This paper attempts to point out a disparity between keeping rabies epidemiological statistics and rabies virus sequencing in the Russian Federation. While data on rabies prevention and laboratory detection are duly gathered, virus sequencing efforts remain insufficient. Along with a lack of public information and mass vaccination campaigns for wildlife and pets, this also might have an impact on the current rabies situation, which is of high risk in Russia. Additionally, drawing on GenBank data, it is suggested that some isolated rabies variants might be circulating in the country.
