Month-long rabies vaccination drive in Kozhikode from September 28

Vaccination drives will be organised through veterinary hospitals, veterinary dispensaries and ward-level camps in collaboration with various local self-government institutions.

The Animal Husbandry department in Kozhikode has announced a month-long rabies vaccination drive, set to commence on September 28 and run through October 27. This marks the fourth phase of the Rabies-Free Kerala vaccination campaign. The initiative is scheduled to be launched on World Rabies Day, coinciding with the date on which it begins.

Vaccination drives will be held at veterinary hospitals, dispensaries, and at ward-level camps in close collaboration with local self-government institutions. Each locality will have a microplan tailored to its specific needs, drawn up in coordination with the local bodies to ensure streamlined vaccination activities. In addition to the vaccination program, the campaign aims to raise public awareness regarding the necessity of timely pet dog vaccination against rabies.
