AccordingAccording to to scientificscientific publicationpublication ( ( classificationclassification) () (Bourhy, H., Kissi, B., Audry, L., Smerczak, M., Sadkowska-Todys, M., Kulonen, K., Tordo, N., Zmudzinski, J. F., Holmes, E. C. (1999): Ecology and evolution of rabies virus in Europe. Journal of General Virology, 80, 2545-2557) all field strains of rabies virus found in 2013 were standardized as a North-East Europe type ( NEE type).
At least 97 % homology to the virus already isolated in Russia
At least 99,9 % homology of the strains among themselves
Different field strain just identified in comparison with the strainsidentified in the past ( 27 field strains identified as a East Europetype ( EE type).

Measures adopted in case of a positive result –domestic (wild) animals I.
outbreak definiton
in the outbreak:
1. marking it with warning tables with wording „CAUTION RABIES !”
2. killing of susceptible animals which came into contact with an animal positive to the presence of rabies antigen
3. carrying out the registration of dogs and cats and protective vaccination of dogs, cats and other carnivore over 3 months of age which have not been vaccinated against rabies so far or since the last antirabic vaccination or re-vaccination period elapsed, provided that they did not come into contact or they did not have the possibility to come into contact with an animal positive to the presence of rabies antigen
-
Measures adopted in the case of a positive result –domestic (wild) animals II.
additional measure in the case of rabies
occurred by domestic animals: • to perform protective vaccination of susceptible domestic animals; it
will permit to use of the milk and other products obtained from them for the human consumption and feeding purposes only following gained immunity (this period will be stated based on the date ofvaccine manufacturer).
occurred by wild animals : • to perform protective vaccination of cattle, sheep and goats in
pasture and to stable the animals until gaining the immunity (this period will be stated based on the date of vaccine manufacturer).
DISTRIBUTION OF VACCINE BAITS FOR ORAL VACCINATION OF FOX POPULATION IN THE SLOVAK REPUBLIC
IN THE YEAR 2013
Cases confirmed in 2013
Oral vaccination of foxes in 2012/spring campaign 2013
Lysvulpen por a.u.v., Bioveta a.s., CZ origin- modificated, attenuated rabies virus SAD Bern (+ TTC as indicator) given to bait
two seasonal campaigns (2012)/spring campaign 2013
spread by plain :
area 12 520 / 12 520 km2, 26/25 baits/1km2 , total 325 500/ 300 000 baits
spread by hand:
area 186 / 208 km2, near the towns, 18/18baits/1km2 total 3350 / 3750 baits
Proposals , further steps to be taken I.
To increase Nr. of animals to be tested for detection of antibodies and biomarker (TTC)
In addition:
1. To increase Nr. of baits per km2 spread by plane (from 25 up to 27 baits) for the autumn campaign
2. to perform spreading of vaccine by hand, targeted on the places close to the fox burrows (10-11 baits per burrow) in 4 risk regions of the Prešov District ( Bardejov, Stara Ľubovna, Svidnik, Prešov – see map - regions characterized by yellow only)
3. Update current eradication programme in relation to actual epidemiological situation regarding purchase and administration (application) of the parenteral vaccines to be given to animals in pasture (risk area)
Proposed extraordinary Proposed extraordinary vaccination campaign (Jun 2013)vaccination campaign (Jun 2013)
7 Cases of rabies confirmed in 2013
Territory in red+ yellow: district Prešov („air“vaccination)Territory in yellow: 4 regions in district Presov („hand“ vaccination)
Proposals , further steps to be taken II.
Cooperation and exchange of views between SK and PL experts
Enhancement of the awareness of the citizens regarding rabies, its characteristic as well as their obligation to report suspected cases ( newspaper, TV, radio, internet, posters)
Close cooperation and meetings of the official veterinary authorities with the hunters and hunting organisations (specially in the risk area)
