This study provides an overview of rabies epidemiology in Iran, presenting data on human cases, animal distributions, and control strategies. It highlights high, medium, and low frequency zones, with detailed figures depicting cases and human deaths. The distribution of Positive Rabies Samples is analyzed among domestic and wild animals. The report stresses the importance of rabies control measures, including increasing vaccination coverage in owned dogs, reducing stray dog populations, and educating public health services. It also emphasizes the need for research on potential new reservoirs and variants of the rabies virus.
