00:00 The state of calamity has been put under the control of the cities of Boac and Buenavista in Maninduque
00:06 because of the case of rabies in animals.
00:08 The Department of Agriculture has a reminder on what to do, especially for those who eat meat.
00:15 And that is what Tina Pangliban Pere is talking about.
00:17 Because of the case of rabies, among cows and pigs,
00:24 two cities in Maninduque are in a state of calamity, Boac and Buenavista.
00:30 Before this, the provincial veterinarian conducted an animal disease investigation
00:35 after a teenager was infected with rabies in 2023.
00:39 And since then, it was found that almost ten reported rabies cases were found in those animals,
00:45 particularly in dogs.
00:47 More than 40 were positive in the lab test.
00:50 Considering the number of human death and the number of animals tested positive for rabies in the outbreak...
00:58 The Department of Agriculture will clarify that it is not cows or pigs that need to be vaccinated,
01:05 but dogs or cats that can be the source of their rabies.
01:09 You need a rabid dog or a cat to transfer the virus.
01:14 And by biting the other animal, you transfer it.
01:20 So yes, it all comes from dogs and cats.
01:24 In Maninduque, mass vaccination was already done for dogs and cats.
01:28 There, not only humans were vaccinated against rabies,
01:33 but also cows, pigs and even a Philippine brown deer.
01:37 It was not said that rabies could be spread to other animals.
01:41 It will only infect them. Unfortunately, our wildlife sanctuary is not safe.
01:47 The bottom line is that it can be an incursion in our wildlife sanctuary
01:55 and can inflict more damage to our wildlife.
01:59 Maninduque Provincial Veterinarian added that they have controlled the spread of infection to humans.
02:05 According to the Department of Agriculture, no one has been diagnosed with rabies
02:11 because of eating infected animals.
02:14 They say that they do not allow people to eat this even if it is boiling.
02:18 The investigation will be resumed on the meat they buy.
02:22 There is a possibility that the infected animal will be transferred if eaten.
02:27 That's why we are very careful in NMIS on approving pork and cattle.
02:32 We need to have NMIS if you buy pork or cattle.
02:39 According to the Health Department, rabies is rare in food.
02:45 The virus does not live if the animal is already dead.
02:55 The possibility is that the brain is cooked and the virus is there.
03:05 Although it is rarely reported, because we are not sure if you can get rabies if you eat that kind of meat,
03:16 the recommendation is to get vaccinated.
