The Jakarta Globe, 22/09 - The Bali administration has finally agreed on a mass rabies vaccination program for dogs, hoping to end an outbreak that has killed at least 78 people since November 2008. Governor Made Mangku Pastika said that the program, run in cooperation with the Bali Animal Welfare Association, would coincide with World Rabies Day, which falls on Sept. 28. “With this cooperation, we hope to eliminate rabies in Bali by 2012,” he said after signing the agreement with the association. The elimination program would focus on vaccination and selected culling, rather than a mass cull.
