*World Rabies Day*
*World Rabies Day* takes place each year on September 28, the anniversary of the death of *Louis Pasteur* who, with the collaboration of his colleagues, developed the first efficacious *rabies vaccine.* World Rabies Day aims to raise awareness about the impact of rabies on humans and animals, provide information and advice on how to prevent the disease in at-risk communities, and support advocacy for increased efforts in rabies control.
