Abstract:

Canine bite cases in the Philippines increased by 462% from 2009 to 2018 which also increased the risk of human rabies infection. The Department of Health declared some municipalities in Region II, IV-B, V, VII, and X, as rabies-free areas in 2017. However, there are still positive cases of rabies infection to these areas and municipalities. This study seeks to provide the epidemiology of rabies cases in Visayas Region and assess their successful canine vaccination implementation. The study utilized the method of Manual Electronic Database Searching, which showed that only full articles that came from the Visayas Region were consistent in data and rabies prevention program in the years 2015-2018. In result to this, the researcher gave an analysis on rabies epidemiology in the Philippines and provided a Recommended Assessment Guide for rabies epidemiology and rabies control based on the consistent updates and reports of the Model Region for rabies prevention and control which is the Visayas Region.
