NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
Rabies is a rare but almost always fatal viral disease if left untreated, and its transmission to humans often occurs through the bites or scratches of infected animals. The fact that only 28 human cases have been reported in Canada since 1924 highlights the rarity of the disease in the country, likely due to strict animal control and vaccination measures. This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of prompt medical attention if someone is bitten or exposed to potentially infected wildlife.
