Tanggamus - The Tanggamus District Health Office, Lampung, handled three children who were bitten by rabies-infectious animals (HPR) in Sembara District.

"The three children have been handled by the Sudimoro Health Center," said Head of Disease Prevention and Control, Marhaenisa Abirakhman, as reported by ANTARA, Tuesday, August 29.

He said, of the three children, all of them had been returned to their respective homes.

"All victims who were bitten by rabies-contagious animals have returned to their respective homes, and we will continue to monitor them while undergoing treatment," said Marhaenisa.

He appealed to all parents or the public to always be aware of HPR attacks or bites.

"We always urge the public to always be vigilant and take care of children against attacks by dogs or other wild animals," he said.

According to Marhaenisa, the rabies virus that is transmitted by animals such as dogs, cats and apes infected with the virus to humans can cause death so that residents are asked to always be vigilant so as not to become victims.

"So that people raise pets such as dogs, cats are wisely grounded and their pets are routinely given anti-rabies vaccine injections in female units, so as not to endanger the surrounding community," he said.

Residents who are bitten by HPR, especially their own after being taken for treatment at the nearest health center, will be given an observation first.

If the animal dies after a few days of biting, it will be immediately given an injection of the anti-rabies vaccine or VAR.
