HeaIth Colllmis Warns of Rabies

A dog that bit two children in Mountain Village this fall was rabid, according to report of la- boratory examinations received by the Alaska Department of Health. Antirabies serum and vacicne were Sent through the Anchorage ADH laboratory for treatment of the children at the Bethel Alaska Native Health Ser- vice hospital
 The dog, "a six-month old pup. was the eleventh animal in which rabies has been confirmed in Al- aska during 1858. Six of these animals were dogs and five were foxes according to ADH records.
 The M rabid animals found so far this year is the highest num- Der reported since 1856 When 12 rabid foxes and three rabid dogs were reported from the Barrow area, according to pr. Harry V. Gibson, commissioner of health. One rabid dog and three rabid foxes were reported last year.
 pr. Gibson emphasized the dan- ger to human beings in the trans mission of rabies to humans by the bite of ~ rabid animal and said that the Alaska Department of Health continues to urge that all dogs be vaceinaed against rabies and all stray dogs destroy ed.
 Rabies is known to be ever- present in some of the wildlife in Alaska" he said, "and a dog bitten by one of these animals be-# comes infected with this always fatal disease and may pass it on to human beings The long pain- ful Pasteur treatment may save a humans life If it is started in time after being bitten by W rabid animal.
