Richard	Diagnosis and prevention of rabies	2001		.txt	text/plain	1859	137	46	The risk of rabies exposure can often be assessed by understanding the local reservoirs of the disease. In locales where domestic animal rabies has not been controlled, dog bites are by far the most common mode of transmission. These symptoms, which occur when the virus first reaches the central nervous system, are so nonspecific that only careful history-taking would suggest the disease. History of exposure to a potentially rabid animal limits what may otherwise become a diagnosis of exclusion, since rabies causes few findings that distinguish it from other viral encephalitides. Persons who face episodic and usually recognized exposure to the virus, a category which includes spelunkers, veterinarians, animal control and wildlife workers, and travelers to foreign areas In occupations where exposure risk is infrequent and comes from recognized sources (animal workers in areas of low enzooticity) should receive the primary vaccination course without further testing or booster.	./cache/cord-006510-kruy0eex.txt	./txt/cord-006510-kruy0eex.txt
