Rabies vaccinations at the rural–urban divide: successes and barriers to dog rabies vaccination programs from a rural and urban campaign in Zambia by Ricky Chazya, Chilufya Aneta Susan Mulenga, Andrew D. Gibson, Frederic Lohr, Cassandra Boutelle, Sarah Bonaparte, Oline Sinywibulula, Gareth Thomas, Patricia Bwalya, George Dautu, Linous Munsimbwe, Geoffrey Muuka, Luke Gamble, Ryan M. Wallace, Michelle A. Waltenburg

“…Extrapolating this relationship nationally, there are an estimated 3.2 million dogs in Zambia (human-to-dog ratio 5.8:1) with 86% residing in rural communities at a very low density of less than 6 dogs per square kilometer.DiscussionAs most dogs were found to reside at very low densities, unique challenges to large-scale dog vaccination approaches may impact Zambia, due to high logistical costs associated with these settings. Prioritizing vaccinations in higher-density free-roaming dog populations could maximize effectiveness in resource-limited settings. …”
