State Rabies Vaccine Laws for Domestic Dogs, Cats, and Ferrets in the United States: Map and Legal Epidemiology Dataset

Rabies, a fatal virus that attacks the central nervous system, is most commonly transmitted when a rabid animal bites another animal or person. Without prophylactic measures, the infection will result in death within days of onset. This map and accompanying legal epidemiology dataset includes information on state-level pre-exposure rabies vaccination laws for domestic dogs, cats, and ferrets across the United States. This dataset was created by CDC’s Public Health Law Program (PHLP) and is published on LawAtlas, part of the Policy Surveillance Program at Temple University.
