Since the 1950s rabies has become a familiar threat in southern Canada. Periodic outbreaks remind us how slight our control over it is. Although new vaccines such as human diploid-cell rabies vaccine have greatly improved the management of rabies in humans, true control must be sought through knowledge of the disease in or wildlife. A guide to rabies prophylaxis in humans is presented, courtesy of the National Advisory Committee on Immunization.
