Abstract

Aim. The aim of this study was to assess the current epizootic and epidemiological surveillance system in Russian Federation, which has demonstrated high effectiveness at the end of the last century, as well as determining the directions of its development in current conditions. Materials and methods. The following study materials were used: the official statistics, the results of epidemiological diagnosis and foreign research data. To assess the situation of rabies in the Russian Federation in 2000 - 2015 we used descriptive and evaluative epidemiological methods and data from our previously conducted research on the public awareness. Results. The nature of the modem epizootic and epidemiological situation of rabies in the Russian Federation has been revealed. It is shown that, despite the decrease in the number of reported cases of rabies in the population, infection risks remain high. In connection with the intensive migration of the population, low awareness and large-scale post-exposure prophylaxis, the clinical and epidemiological features of rabies are changing, reducing the effectiveness of supervision. Conclusion. The current system of epidemiological surveillance for rabies has to be improved by changing the organizational structure and optimize its diagnostic component.
