1 Objectives NC Rabies Control Laws & Policy Certified Rabies Vaccinator Training Veterinary Public Health Program NC Division of Public Health To describe the rationale for the existence of such a legal framework for one disease. To summarize the individual roles and responsibilities of animal owners, bite victims, animal control officers, physicians and veterinarians when dealing with rabies exposures To know when to apply rabies control measures specified in NCGS To demonstrate basic principles of rabies control laws Estimated Burden of Human Rabies in the World What Makes us Different? NCGS 130A-185. Vaccination of all dogs, cats and ferrets Human mortality from rabies is estimated to be 55,000 deaths per year Mostly in Africa and Asia Due to uncontrolled canine rabies Weekly Epidemiological Record No. 49/50, 2007, 82, (a) The owner of every dog and cat over four months of age shall have the animal vaccinated against rabies. The time or times of vaccination shall be established by the Commission. Rabies vaccine shall be administered only by a licensed veterinarian or by a certified rabies vaccinator. We learned from Old Yeller and Atticus However, in the US there are only several cases per year Multi Point Control of Rabies Pet Owners NC DPH WDCA Local ACO Local PH NC WRC USDA WS Rabid Domestic Animals 1,2,3 Rabid Wild Animals 1.

2 Why Rabies Control? To protect people Benefit to animals is secondary Stages of Prevention 1 and Rabies 2 and NC Law Primary Prevention Secondary Prevention Tertiary Prevention Prevent exposure; education Avoid contacts with unknown animals; Pet vaccination; Animal control to restrict roaming pets Screening and identification of disease (exposure) before signs/symptoms Wash bite wounds; Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP); Determine animal rabies status Prevention of disease progression after signs/symptoms Experimental treatment; Milwaukee protocol NCGS 130A-185 NCGS Chapter 67, 153A & 160 NCWRC Policy NCGS 130A-196 & Prevention.

MMWR May 23, 2008/ 57(RR03);1-26,28. 8 Authority is Derived from NC Statutes NC Administrative Code County Ordinances CDC or APHA guidance Peer Reviewed Literature Statute, Rule, Ordinance, Guidance? What should we follow? All can be excellent resources and provide direction but General Statutes supersede all others Rules and local ordinances cannot be less strict than general statute Published guidance from CDC may differ from general statute, but still follow the law Communicable Disease: 130A-41 Powers and duties of local health director A local health director shall have the following powers and duties: To investigate the causes of infectious, communicable and other diseases; To exercise quarantine authority and isolation authority pursuant to G.S. 130A-145; To examine, investigate and control rabies pursuant to Part 6 of Article 6 of this Chapter; Communicable Disease 10A NCAC 45C.0101 ESSENTIAL PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICES Communicable Disease Control: (i) Tuberculosis control; (ii) Immunization; (iii) Epidemiologic investigation, surveillance and general communicable disease control; (iv) HIV/STD control; (v) Rabies control; 2
3 Communicable Disease 10 NCAC 03C.4106 POLICIES AND PROCEDURES Each emergency department shall establish written policies and procedures which specify the scope and conduct of patient care to be provided in the emergency areas. They shall include the following: tetanus and rabies prevention or prophylaxis Animal Control: Cities and Counties 153A (counties) and 160A (cities) allows local governments to Adopt rabies control ordinances that supplement state laws Establish animal control agencies Regulate the possession of dangerous or exotic animals Local Rabies Ordinances Cities and counties have broad authority to adopt ordinances designed to protect the health, safety, and welfare of their citizens Local laws should not duplicate or contradict existing state law related to rabies, but in some circumstances it may be appropriate to rely on local laws to supplement the state law An Overview of NCs Rabies Control Laws Coordination is Essential NCGS places authority for communicable disease control with the Local Health Director The LHD may delegate (some) responsibility to Animal Control (AC) agencies There must be written agreements (MOA) between agencies specifically delineating responsibility AC officers must defer human rabies risk assessments to local CD nurses Local Board of Health Typical Organizational Structure for Rabies Control Understand One Another Animal Services Agencies Local Health Director County Sheriff County Manager Local Health Department Communicable Disease Staff Advise Clinicians, Veterinarians, Exposed Persons, Pet owners Animal Services Officers Advise Veterinarians, Pet owners, Instruct Exposed Persons to call CD staff or Health Care Provider Veterinarians Communicable Disease Staff Physicians / Clinicians 3

10 Legal Status of Exotic Animal Ownership in NC Counties have acted independently and created ordinances that restrict ownership / possession / keeping of exotics Legal Authority NCGS 153A-131 Possession or harboring of dangerous animals A county may by ordinance regulate, restrict, or prohibit the possession or harboring of animals which are dangerous to persons or property NCGS 160A-187 Possession or harboring of dangerous animals A city may by ordinance regulate, restrict, or prohibit the possession or harboring within the city of animals which are dangerous to persons or property Definitions vary by County Surry: Inherently Dangerous Exotic Animal Non human primates Member of family canidae excluding Canis familiaris Member of the family felidae excluding Felis catus, if over 15 pounds Member of the family ursidae reptiles, insects, or arachnids which are venomous and which are not indigenous to Surry County Iredell: Wild and Exotic Animals Reptiles which are poisonous or constricting and more than ten (10) feet in length. Nonhuman primates weighing greater than twenty-five (25) pounds Members of the feline family other than domestic house cats, including, but not limited to lions, tigers and leopards Reptiles that are members of the crocodile family, including, but not limited to alligators and crocodiles. Rabies The primary concern with mammal bites is rabies but there are some important considerations when dealing with animals kept as pets other than dogs, cats, and ferrets Hybrid dogs and cats that bite Give us a call These animals are not dogs or cats as defined by NC rabies statutes Standard control measures will not generally apply What happens if a bites a person? Rabies The viral shedding period is known only for dogs, cats, and ferrets Other mammals that bite, even if kept as pets, may need to be submitted for rabies testing But what if the was vaccinated against rabies? Animal rabies vaccines are licensed for use only in: dogs, cats, ferrets, cattle, horses, sheep Use of rabies vaccines in other species is an off label use that carries no guarantee of efficacy 10
11 But my has a demonstrated rabies antibody titer, therefore it is protected False Titers do not directly correlate with protection because other immunologic factors also play a role in preventing rabies, and our abilities to measure and interpret those other factors are not well-developed. Therefore, evidence of circulating rabies virus antibodies in animals should not be used as a substitute for current vaccination in managing rabies exposures or determining the need for booster vaccinations Exotic Animal Bites Often confusing as the disease risks may not be fully understood Human and animal follow up can be expensive People have often spent thousands of dollars to obtain exotic and are reluctant to relinquish Local animal control has little to no experience in handling these species It is better to prohibit possession / ownership through ordinance 11
