The #worldrabiesday theme is here for 2023! Great to see that #OneHealth features so prominently again and also how everyone can contribute to #EndRabiesNow !
Was honored to facilitate today's discussions at #PARACON on the importance of quality surveillance and vaccination data to document progress made on #rabies control and support resources mobilization efforts as exemplified by @FAOemergencies ECTAD and @RabiesAlliance programs.
