abstract="Dr. W. H. Y. Smith, Alabama Department of Public Health, supplied the information on the case of human rabies reported last week. in late February or early March a lady in Birmingham was given a puppy. The donor has not been identified. A few days later the puppy played rougher than usual and bit a white adult neighbor and her child and another neighbor's child. Each person was bitten on the finger. One of the women called the health department about the situation and was told to have the dog confined for at least 10 days. However, after discussing this with the owner, they decided, since no fence was available, to take the puppy out on the highway and release it. The adult developed rabies on May 25 and died on June 8. Microscopic examinations of the brain tissue showed positive smears for Negri bodies and mice inoculation tests also were positive. Antirabies treatment was begun May 29 for me 2 children who were bitten at the same time as the victim.",
