WARNING GIVEN
CONCERNING THE
RABBIT FEVER

Beware that the open season for
wild rabbits does not also become the
open season for tularemia," DIR. r. H.
Riley, Director of the State Depart
ment of Health, warns all who come
in contact with the cottontails! ere
member" he said that this serious
disease, which is widely known as
rabbit fever, is usually transmitted to
human beings through contact with
infected wild rabbits, or with the in
fected insects that spread it from one
animal to another"
Since November Is, when the hunt
ing season began in most counties Of
Maryland, the rabbit has given pleas
ure and profit to hunters, market men
and the halrassed housewife who
tries to give her family varied
menu. However, DR.. Riley empha
sized the fact that this enjoyment is
not safe unless proper precautions are
taken against rabbit fever.
ITO begin WITH" he said, sit is not
only good craftsmanship but also
good judgment to shoot only the
frisky rabbit that can run away from
you, for dull and sluggish rabbit
without the energy to run is very
likely to be sick one that will give
tularemia to anybody who handles
him.
"Once the rabbit has been shot or
trapped all who handle the game,
hunters, market men, and those who
prepare the meat for the table, should
make every effort to avoid possible
infection. True, not all animals are
infected; for only about one percent
of the wild ones are believed to be
sources of the disease, and so far
those bred in sanitary rabbitries-
the only kind that can be sold legally
in Baltimore City-have been found
to be free from the infection. Howev-
er, it is safest to assume that every
rabbit is source of danger, and to
take certain necessary precautions:
EDO not handle the animal or the
uncooked meat with your bare hands.
Use rubber gloves.
"Be especially careful to avoid alb
sorbing any of the infectious material
if there is any cut or scratch, how
ever small, on your hand.
keep your hands away from your
face, mouth and eyes; wash your
hands thoroughly as soon as you have
